		<description><![CDATA[The Chicago Reader is a local institution. It dates back to 1971, one of the oldest free weekly papers in the country (preceded by the Village Voice and perhaps one or two others). And it&#8217;s been near and dear to my heart since I first moved to Chicago in the mid &#8217;80s. It always provided a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Chuck Todd is the White House correspondent for NBC News. He is, frankly, one of the smartest political analysts on network TV—certainly he was among the best covering last year&#8217;s elections.
And yet&#8230; events this week make it clear that Chuck Todd has no faith in the American justice system, has no confidence in the democratic [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Where did we leave off? 
I was writing about the difficulty of finding something meaningful to say in the wake of all the full-time, professional political bloggers out there. Too often I feel like I&#8217;m just offering a synthesis of what others have said, rather than any new insight.

Going in to 2008, one could hardly open a magazine or flip a channel without hitting a media comparison to 1968. It was 40 years ago (a nice, round number), and it was a paradigm-shifting political year that looked familiar, with an open [...]]]></description>

One of the most consequential ones, however, with ripple effects that will last far beyond the pain of this current economic downturn, is the death spiral of the newspaper business.
