I’ll admit it: I am a huge freeloader when it comes to news on the Internet: if it’s free, I’ll read it. If it’s not free… well, then it depends. I’ve had a long-standing list of media that I would be happy to pay for: The Economist, The New York Times, and The Guardian. And […] A long, long time ago, I aspired to become a journalist – I worked on the student newspaper at the University of Wyoming, The Branding Iron, and I harbored dreams of becoming a well known and well respected journalist in Wyoming. Something funny happened on the way to fulfilling that dream and I ended up […] Considering how little time I’ve lived in Weimar (four years), this city keeps making the pages of The Economist at an unbelievable rate.

I also learned that my neighbors- living […] I’ve noticed a funny thing about the way I absorb news since moving to Germany. I have changed the mix of media substantially. Living in Bloomington I used the Hearld-Times, The Indiana Daily Student, NPR, WISH-TV, NYTimes.com, CNN.com, and random other sources that crossed my desk. Now I have reduced my sources to three principle […] Today I went down into the cellar and hauled out a bicycle, which I then rode for a few hours.
