I wrote an item a little over a week ago on an experiment to treat a youth whose heart had been damaged in an industrial accident (I'm being generous -- some idiot co-worker shot him in the chest using a nail gun).

Over at MediaMinded there's a summary of the feud between media critics William McGowan, author of "Coloring the News" and Eric Alterman, author of "What Liberal Media." To make a long story short, Alterman apparently (I haven't gotten that far yet) slams McGowan's book based on a negative review in the Washington Monthly magazine. (The […]
