Web Log Purpose

A web log based on the principle that a civilized society deserves democratic government based on integrity. The premise here is the U.S. democracy has effectively been subverted by oligarchical forces which must be opposed with facts and rational thought. (An RSS feed is recommended.)

On-line Journalist Still in Jail

This is the case of web-based journalist Josh Wolf, who has now been held in jail longer than any journalist in United States history. I would very much like to write more about this situation, but limited time precludes this.

However, I can say that after listening to Mr. Wolf on the radio this evening, the government's case against him is suspicious at best. I strongly recommend listening to the interview with Wolf and the dialogue which follows at the Democracy Now web site whose link is here:
< http://www.democracynow.org/ >. The freedom of the press, and along with this, our own freedom is very much at stake.

I will be following this story in the future and posting more about it as events warrant.
