A rabidly conservative site has put together a top ten list
of the most harmful books of the last two centuries.
Not surprising, reading it makes for some entertainment. Not only do they go out of their way to pick every influential book that they have never read, they often completely screw up the descriptions and even titles of the books.

Turner: CNN Focuses Too Much on Perverts
ted turner says:
"I would like to see us to return to a little more international coverage on the domestic feed and a little more environmental coverage, and, maybe, maybe a little less of the pervert of the day. I mean, there's a lot of perversion around, I know that, but is it really news? I mean, some of it is. I guess you've got to cover Michael Jackson, but not three stories about perversion at the lead of every half-hour."

Sonja, I saw that headline about Turner and was like "Old man, find something else to do." That said, I agree, of course, that in a macro sense, CNN, like all major news outlets, sucks at its job.
the only news, and it's not news
in the regular sense, that i watch
is c-span. no commentary, no opinions, just what's happening.
the rest are just blow-dried blow-up dolls - except for aaron brown -
and then only some of the time
