Even if University divestment has a negligible impact on PetroChina or the government in Sudan, we consider dumping the shares to be a moral imperative.

Now the candidates themselves are directing voters to this neutral, online alternative to the confusing inundation of partisan information...
Clearly the impact of the Internet on the campaign is far too broad to fully cover in 900 words. Over the past year MoveOn.org has raised incredible amounts of money and support for the Democratic campaign efforts. JibJab.com has given millions of viewers more-or-less neutral flash animation satire (of questionable political but indisputable entertainment value). We can read real-time commentary by political pundits while watching the debate, and almost all the major opinion columnists (along with quite a few new faces) now have well-read blogs. It’s becoming increasingly clear that the Internet provides...
