- From Chistopher Conkey's "five picks,"
Wall Street Journal, 29 January 2004, pp.
D1-D2.
Columbia
Journalism Review's Campaign Desk
- Run by a former managing editor of
the Philadelphia Inquirer, this site rests on a simple
premise: The quality of American democracy is
inextricably linked to press coverage of election
campaigns. The site's goal is to monitor the media as the
media monitors the politicians.
- ABC's
The Note
- This site is the place that political
reporters and junkies turn for the nuts-and-bolts
information they need to plan their C-Span viewing -- or
to find out when a presidential candidate is coming to
town.
- Annenberg
Political Fact Check
- Brooks Jackson, a former Cable News
Network and Wall Street Journal reporter, debunks
misleading claims, false attacks and subtle associations
that litter the campaign trail on a Web site housed at
the University of Pennsylvania's Annenberg Public Policy
Center. It strives to reinforce the late New York Sen.
Daniel Patrick Moynihan's conviction: "Everyone is
entitled to their own opinion, but not their own
facts."
- Josh
Marshall's Talking Points Memo
- An assiduous reporter with a writer's
eye for nuance and detail, Josh Marshall spent the past
week hop-scotching from one New Hampshire campaign rally
to another, giving readers of his blog an on-the-ground
sense of, for instance, how a candidate like Sen. Edwards
was able to reassert himself.
- Andrew
Sullivan's Daily Dish
- Andrew Sullivan, a former editor of
the New Republic who has turned to blogging, describes
himself as a "fiscal conservative, social-cultural
liberal and foreign-policy hawk."
