I have to ask. Is anyone else finding the New York Times reporting every event with breathlessness becoming annoying? The online format shows serious news on the left and all kinds of trivia on the right, so perhaps my real error is readling the paper online. But ridicuous facts are seldom discounted - and fake news comments are seldom corrected.

One alternative is to read many of the authors I used to enjoy in the Times or the Post on Substack. Their purpose is to inform and encourage action. Here is an example from Paul Krugman. And note the coda which will take some of us back to the early sixties singing the same verses. And here is another from Robert Reich. The second one may have implications for Canadians as well.
