DAILY BLOG REVIEW / by Jennie Rigg

Sorry, sorry, sorry, I know the netcast is late, but LOOK! I has a Dreamwidth! Lookit their Diversity Statement! This is a proper blog platform for Liberals! It’s all open and transparent and does all the cool things LJ does and WordPress does with none of the pains in the butt!

* cough *

Sorry. Bit excited. Will cast net now. Sorry.

Chicky Yog points out some of the things that are being covered up by the MSM hysteria over some pointless emails. Still, who cares about protesters getting arrested or war inquiries when there’s Westminster tittle-tattle to obsess over…

The World is My Country on China’s interaction with Africa and how it affects us all.

Gneil, Charlie Stross, and our very own Sarah have good posts on amazonfail.

LavenderSparkle has a fantastic post on the politics of the hijab (and other head-coverings for women).

Richard Herring reviews The Boat That Rocked in somewhat caustic terms.

The Lay Scientist points out a stunning bit of Daily Fail hypocrisy and double standards.

And if you’re in the mood for feeling some feminist rage, you can read Crimitism‘s long and detailed review of all the fail in The Nice Guy webcomic, or you can browse through previous Netcasts
