Daily Brain Food

Here are a couple of Australians who help to cut through the FUD of our politicians and their spin doctors and cheer squads in the mainstream media.

John Quiggin is one of those rare folks with a very good understanding of both the climate change issue and Australia’s compromised political response. John is also not afraid to present the facts and speak his mind – a quality that would surely enhance the standing and reputation of Australia’s media. If only.

Ken Lovell produces some outstanding articles at Tim Dunlop’s blog – roadtosurfdom. This morning’s piece is typical of his efforts. Ken has a particular style that cuts to the chase and exposes the manipulation of the various “players” – it’s always a great read.
