The Bombs Bursting In Air

It is day three of the war in Iraq and I have already tired of the constant television coverage. As talking heads guess what is going on thousands of miles away, with images of bombs exploding in glowing technicolor behind their heads, we are quickly learning that the information being given is premature and sometimes often inaccurate. Is Suddam dead? Is he alive? Was the speech recorded? Is it a double? And on and on. I find myself quickly looking for more accurate and thoughtful sources concerning the aggression. Some resources can be found here:

  • Metafilter.com, of course

    Careful discussion of most everything going on

  • and

  • Cyberjournalist.net
  • A blog of sources for gulf war coverage, including some blogging from embedded journalists.
