  • What Stories Aren't Being Told? [View article]
    It's a tough question to address to SA readers, since a lot of the "untold stories" (which I take to mean "untold" by MSM) originate here -- so they aren't untold at all. (on the other hand, there's a lot of nonsense and ranting on SA too -- signal to noise ratio).

    The traditional MSM slam against the blogosphere is that it's all commentary on a core of facts/research done by mainstream news orgs (i.e. MSM). And sure, there's plenty of commentary -- wacky and otherwise. But there are also a number of highly economically literate commentators (including yourself) who are doing basic analysis and providing it gratis to those with the discernment to recognize it.

    MSM reporters -- predominantly people who have never actually worked in business and who are ideologically suspicious of it -- are increasingly tapping into this resource and using it to educate themselves, then in turn educating the public.

    Sorry, that's not what you asked for. I think your bullets are good points. But again, they're all topics you'll find discussed here.
