The RIAA recently announced that shipments of Latin music rose 13 percent in 2005. A round of applause (and a corollary boo-hoo) to artists like Colombia’s Shakira Mebarak for keeping the music industry alive! Typically, I’m no fan of megapop, and if I were to express her new single “Hips Don’t Lie” in mathematical terms, it’d give me a conniption, e.g.: Gypsy Kings + deracinated hi...

A few months ago, I documented for Spectator readers the disaster that is Current magazine. Current is published by Newsweek -- the full title is Current with Newsweek -- and distributed on college campuses like Georgetown University, the "Catholic" school where I pick mine up. As I said in the previous piece, Current is written and edited by students; call it a farm team for the mainstream med...

As all newspaper and magazine editors worth their salt know, readers love lists.

Money magazine knew this long ago when it first started issuing its “Best Places to Live” issue. Business magazines followed suit with their “Best Cities for Business” issues.

Blaine argues vociferously in favor of her right to a public online life. "My website is not a professional venue of mine; it's not linked to my teaching at USC. I've never assigned my site to students. I've never told them to go look and find images of me. It's not been brought into my teaching at all," she states. Fifty-one students who filled out surveys about Blaine's teaching gave her...

Human Rights First has put together this straight-talking well-researched report about the 98 detainees in U.S. custody who have been murdered or "disappeared." They carefully document how the people responsible for torture and homicide have gotten away with murder.
