Here’s a quick excerpt
On the July 18 edition of his nationally syndicated radio show, Rush Limbaugh deceptively cropped a series of news reports on the recent violence in the Middle East to falsely suggest the reports didn't identify Hezbollah as a terrorist organization. Noting that the members making up Hezbollah “have been terrorists for a long time,” Limbaugh alleged that “all of a sudden, now that they're engaged with a U.S. ally” the media suggests that “they're just poor little wife-finders, construction workers, doctors and nurses, water sanitation experts, schoolteachers.” Limbaugh made the claim as purported evidence that the media are seeking to “humanize Hezbollah” and portray the group as “the good guys.” But each of the news reports Limbaugh cited — by CNN chief national correspondent John King, NBC chief foreign correspondent Andrea Mitchell, CNN host Miles O'Brien and Wall Street Journal reporter Yaroslav Trofimov — mentioned that Hezbollah is an organization [...]

Travel with Rick Steves wrote an interesting post today on
Here’s a quick excerpt
Good things often come in small packages. This week on Travel with Rick Steves, we’ll investigate two small countries in Europe and Latin America that are often overlooked as destinations in their own right. Belgium has been in the center of much of Europe’s action for centuries, and it now hosts the political capital of the European Union. It’s a country with a remarkably easy-going flair, and great food. Native son tour guide Ferdi Menghi joins Rick to take listener calls about Belgium. Then, Kurt Kutay (koo-TIE) introduces us to an indigenous tour guide in Belize, for an overview of Belize for adventure travelers. That, and another round of listener’s travel haiku, are coming up on the next Travel with Rick Steves. For more information on Travel with Rick Steves — including episode descriptions, program archives and related details — visit www.ricksteves.com.
