The Tentacle: The Nine Capitals of the United States

September 28, 2011

A “Capital” History Lesson
Kevin E. Dayhoff
Yesterday, September 27, one city in the United States celebrated the anniversary of the occasion when it was the capital of the United States for one day. Can you name that city? How many cities have served as the capital of our nation since September 5, 1774?

For many well-read and knowledgeable political and history junkies, there is nothing more fun than historical trivia. Perhaps because little known gems from history give us a much needed respite from the heated discussions over contemporary politics.

It was Lancaster, PA...

NewsBusters.org: Bernie Goldberg - Trust in Media Low Due to Love Affair With Obama



America's trust in the media has fallen to new lows. Appearing on Fox News's "O'Reilly Factor" Tuesday, political commentator Bernie Goldberg said it was because of the media's love affair with Barack Obama: "I think the reason that the trust level is so low today for the media is because of its relationship with Barack Obama. During the campaign, they fell in love with him. They moved from old-fashioned media bias into something new. Media activism."

CNN's Jack Cafferty smeared entire crowds of people who attended recent GOP debates when he asked on Tuesday if they were "bloodthirsty." "For the third time in as many debates, crowd members have either booed or cheered at what some say are highly inappropriate moments," Cafferty stated. He slammed both the crowd behavior and the Republican candidates for not denouncing such antics.

During an appearance on Morning Joe, Tuesday, Newsweek editor Tina Brown made an off-hand remark about Barack Obama, conceding that the politician "wasn't ready" to be President. Brown has previously attacked Rush Limbaugh and other conservatives for daring to oppose the Obama administration. While discussing whether New Jersey Governor Chris Christie will change his mind and run for President, the former New Yorker editor blurted, "Actually, I just hope he doesn't, because in the end, you know, his tremendous misgivings, maybe he is right. I mean, We had this with Obama. He wasn't ready, it turns out, really."

Yesterday, Raleigh News & Observer assured readers that North Carolina Governor Beverly Perdue was joking when she suggested that "I think we ought to suspend, perhaps, elections for Congress for two years" at a Rotary Club luncheon in Cary. That's what his headline said: "Perdue jokes about suspending Congressional elections for two years." There were no quote marks around "jokes." The headline echoed what the Governor's apparatchiks were saying. All the while, the original blog contributor had audio and didn't post it. He finally did this morning, and acknowledged that he was the one who did the taping. However, he let the world know about what the governor said and assured us that she was joking, he had completely contradictory audio and held it for almost a day, and he still won't come clean. His disingenuous headline today is "Was Perdue joking? You decide. Listen here." His actions certainly aren't the actions of an objective reporter.

Reflections of a Newsosaur: How newspapers are losing next-gen readers

Reflections of a Newsosaur: 


Posted: 28 Sep 2011

A new study shows the dramatic degree to which consumers under the age of 40 have repudiated newspapers.

The must-read report, which was released Monday by the Pew Research Center’s Project for Excellence in Journalism, found an alarming disconnect between younger and older consumers in the value they put on newspapers as sources of information about their communities.
