Dave,

I know commercial endorsements aren't generally allowed on IP but I hope
you'll allow this link to a letter from Salon's editors. They're one of the
few *good* independent news/analysis sites still around on the net, and as
many know, are hurting for money.

I've been a subscriber for a year now, and find their in-depth articles very
insightful, useful, and wouldn't post this note to you unless I believed in
what they are doing and find value in their "products." They routinely run
articles on both sides of an issue, and don't generally have a political
agenda that taints their stuff like most of the other mainstream news
organizations.

In light of today's overly-conservative, pro-Bush media that's been
consolidated into a few corporate conglomerates, their editors have a
well-written letter showing why Salon's a valuable resource for independent
news/analysis, and why it makes sense for people to subscribe to it.

And, no, I'm not associated with Salon in any way -- I just don't want to
see it disappear like so many other Dot Coms.

The editor's note is at:

Thanks,
