Extra! - the Newsletter of Fair
Come to think of it, if I could read only two publications, they would be CONSUMER REPORTS and EXTRA!. Along with learning which washing machines to avoid, you need to know when news organizations are defective.
And it's not just FOX NEWS CHANNEL, THE NEW YORK POST and THE WASHINGTON TIMES that get the story wrong. EXTRA! also calls out THE NEW YORK TIMES, THE WASHINGTON POST, NATIONAL PUBLIC RADIO and P.B.S. TELEVISION for incorrect and misleading reports.
Don't trust corporate media. Subscribe to EXTRA!.I've been a subscriber to FAIR's "Extra!" for one year now. For a news junkie (such as myself), it provides great progressive-driven analysis and criticism of US mainstream media particularly cable news and major newspapers. They offer a progressive viewpoint, so this of course influences their perspectives on social or economic issues. With this in mind, they do a well-researched job in their critiques, something which CANT be said for the myriad of pundits on TV or right-wing media watch groups such as AIM (Accuracy in Media).
Buy Extra! - the Newsletter of Fair Now
EXTRA is published bimonthly by FAIR (Fairness & Accuracy in Reporting, Inc.). Sample article titles in the current issue (June 2004) are "How Public is Public Radio"? and "Nafta's Hung Jury." The magazine offers criticism of media bias and censorship. The favorite targets seem to be members of the media elite such as Rush Limbaugh, Ted Koppel and Bill O'Reilly as well as leading newspapers including the WASHINGTON POST, NEW YORK TIMES, USA TODAY and LOS ANGELES TIMES. Attention is also paid to all major TV and radio outlets. The internet so far gets scant mention.In order to fully appreciate EXTRA it helps if you are a news junky. I think I qualify on that score but I am probably somewhat to the right of the editors of this publication. It appears to me that EXTRA has a decidedly liberal slant. That judgement no doubt in influenced by my vantage point.

Metalsmith
Sponsored by the Society of North American Goldsmiths(SNAG), it is well funded with quality glossy paper and full color images. The articles may be a little short or lacking in content some of the time, and it may have more advertisements than desirable, but they are easily overlooked.
What, you still haven't decided? Ok, they also offer a student discount and full membership with SNAG (worth the subscription price in itself), information on conferences and events, hard to find vendors information (some of them I would never have heard of, even with the internet!), and did I mention the quality of the printed page?! Go, go now, subscribe. You won't regret it.Would never know about available products for metalsmithing that come on the market without this resource.This is the magazine that my friends and I wait for every month. It is inspiring and informative, I am one pleased customer.

Glass Line
It's a must !!I had hoped to get more about small soft glass projects with this publication, but it really seems to be geared more to glass blowers and those with furnaces. I'm sure it's fine for those folks, but that doesn't include me.It has a little bit of all types of glass work from large projects to small beads. Love it.
