My news feed on Feedly includes a number of sources from "mainstream" news outlets, high (NY Times and Washington Post, NPR), medium (Reuters and AP) to low (Yahoo, ABC). It also includes international site, science sites, business sites, etc. I even have few of those still rare but steadily growing "independent" news outlets, such as the Intercept. Reviewing my feed today I noticed an odd thing. What they cover and what they do not (especially what they do not) varies a great deal.

What we are living through now is something even more momentous than the crisis of the War Between The States. I did not use the term "Civil War" advisedly. Yes the WBTS was civil but really only focussed on two broad economic issues: mercantilism versus slave labor.
First they ignore you. Then they ridicule you. And then they attack you and want to burn you. And then they build monuments to you.

I say the insurgency in the Democratic Party has arrived because the neoliberals are no longer ignoring it. They are now slandering it.
suppose it was bound to happen. Violence against transgender women is so common in Mexico.
The civil rights organization Transgender Europe has documented 247 killings of transgender people in Mexico between January 2008 and April 2016, the second-highest number in the world, after Brazil.
The failure of the Republicans to kill Obamacare, and eliminate health insurance for tens of millions of poor Trump supporters, is going to cause some serious problems for Republican plans to make massive tax cuts for the wealthy.
However, that might not be the primary obstacle to Trump's agenda.
