Hello Mary,
This list is suddenly becoming busy. We've acquired two new members and will, I
believe, be acquiring another one. It's an ill wind that blows no good, they
say. I do believe we can thank Mr. Trump for the rejuvenation of this list. At
any rate, I'll forward one of the Real News Network digests to the list. It's a
website which has excellent little news videos that you can listen to and also,
there's a text of each one, I believe. I'll forward one of the digests. You go
to the heading of the story in which you're interested, which is also a link,
and then, you move down until you find a play button and press enter. If you
find the website, you can sign up for your own digests. The website is in
Baltimore. Its founder, Paul Jay, comes from Canada, and it does national,
international, and local Baltimore news. Some of my favorite people are on
there: max Blumenthal, Ben Norton, Dean Baker, etc.
Miriam

Hi folks,
I just joined this list, of whose existence I had no idea until a friend
forwarded me a book recommendation from one of the BARD lists, where this list
was mentioned. I recognize Miriam's name from the bookshare list of many years
ago. We liked lots of the same books on political/historical topics. Anyway, I
joined out of curiosity to see what the list was like.
I've seen a couple posts, one of which mentioned the real news network, with
which I am not familiar. what is it?
Mary
