DAILY BLOG REVIEW / by Aaron Heath

The Quail - Demonstrating their commitment to breaking the biggest stories, Daily Mail hacks risk having their innards comically turned inside-out as they dabble in time travel. Admirable.

The People’s Republic of Mortimer - Alix wants the Lib Dem tax policy to get the credit and profile it deserves. She also warns the party against “family-speak” vote-grubbing.

Pickled Politics - Shariq focuses on *that* speech from the final day of the Democratic Convention.

Demos - Has McCain finally come to his senses?

Tim Worstall - We should all eat organic, right? What we need though, to bring prices down, is a return to peasantry.

The Daily (Maybe) - Green Party deputy leader hopeful, Adrian Ramsay, is under the spot-light.

Enemies of Reason - Anton argues for greater press controls, as self-regulation is a joke. Oh, and don’t get him started on online newspaper comment threads.
