Iowa author Mike Palecek has recently released his newest book, "The American Dream."
Review of "The American Dream" by Marie Jones "Palecek is fearless, skewering religious extremism, political right wing fundamentalism, gung-ho patriotism and the use of fear to play upon the innocent ... and ignorant. And it works. I finished the book in one night ... but it's been in my brain ever since, like a song that won't go away ... haunting." http://www.bookideas.com/reviews/index.cfm?fuseaction=displayReview&id=3767
Mike from making strange references. The Russian media under communists was at least cheap and on the state retainer. As such it was worth its money and still, if we disregard official propaganda the actual linguistic, social and even economic levels were very high. It was a national media. Our media are whores. They work for pimps. There is a difference.
