Bush Job Approval at 25%, His Lowest Yet
Posted by Jeff from Gallup
Bush's previous low point was 27%, measured about a week ago.

David Cay Johnston Tells Journalists to Question Financial Bailout
Posted by Jeff from Poynter
In covering the proposed $700 billion bailout of Wall Street don't repeat the failed lapdog practices that so damaged our reputations in the rush to war in Iraq and the adoption of the Patriot Act. Don't assume that Congress must act instantly, as so many news stories state as if it was an immutable fact. The Administration has scared the markets and some key legislative leaders, but it has not laid out a coherent, specific and compelling need for this enormous proposal, which is the equivalent of a one-time 55 percent income tax surcharge.
