AIDS Sutra: Untold Stories From India By Salman Rushdie, Siddhartha Deb, Kiran Desai, Nikita Lawani, Vikram Seth, et. al. Anchor Books...
...bias charges were the tipping point in a major shake-up. Taking a page from Fox News, the cable network has cultivated opinionated, left-of-center hosts like Rachel Maddow, Chris Matthews and Keith Olbermann. This juiced MSNBC's ratings, but it threatened the perceived neutrality of Brian Williams et al. and thus the larger NBC News sister brand. When delegates chanted "NBC! NBC!" during the media-bashing at the RNC--and not in the good "U.S.A.! U.S.A.!" way--it amounted to a massive negative ad on six networks. The following Monday, NBC announced that Matthews and Olbermann would...

ANSS's first task has been to provide gel lubricants to gay men in Burundi, where in 2004, the government banned NGOs from sending the taboo lubricant there, leaving many men to use unsafe substitutes during sex - Vaseline, for instance, which weakens latex condoms...
James Poniewozik asks, "has America lost its sense of humor?" [July 28]. Yes, thanks to this Administration's successful politics of fear, division and deceit. Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert, et al provide those who did not re-elect Bush with not only comic relief but also much appreciated validation. Hundreds of thousands of innocent people have died for no apparent reason. And hundreds of thousands of American voters remain devoted to the Administration that caused this carnage. I won't laugh until we get our country back. Sandy Light, ROANOKE...
