1/6 Jag har gått från att dagligen läsa tre tidningar, lyssna på p1, prenumera på Economist, kolla SVT, till att endast prenumerera på NYRB och kolla på feministisk porr.
All mediakritik är förstås inte saklig, en del handlar om att underminera fria medier och få igenom olika gruppers agenda.
Jag tar i stort sett inte längre del av svenska nyheter p.g.a. den enorma inkompetens och passivitet som driver svenska mediers rapportering gällande i stort sett samtliga frågor som på något sätt kan utmana existerande makt.
Inte en enda kommentar har jag hört i Sveriges Radio (som nu oavbrutet kommenterat Trumps tal sedan kl 16) om det här fullblodsrasistiska ”skämtet” om somalier. Alla bara pustar ut: ”han tänker iaf inte anfalla oss”😮‍💨.

"Latronico’s prose strips the deluginous images on our screens of their sticky allure, making them appear brittle and dry—an austere triumph of the written word."

No.
To rebel against the government requires no special enumerated 'right' of any kind. That would be nonsensical, just as the fraudulent malinterpretation of the 2A is nonsensical.

I threw this month's budget out of kilter ordering a bunch of books from Seagull Books but it's worth it. Book prices have gone up so much and local booksellers don't stock as much as they used to from NYRB, archipelago, Fitzcarraldo etc so Seagull is kinda my last best hope to read something not

Good description of this in a recent NYRB of Douthat’s latest. He’s obvs to the right of reactionary centrists, but a similar play.

New Directions was founded in 1936 and has published over a thousand titles. NYRB Classics was founded in 1999 and has published hundreds of titles. McNally Editions was founded in 2022 has published a few dozen titles. Editor Jeremy Davies has an inflated sense of self, it seems.
January 10, 2026 at 6:32 AM
Exactly. I've passed along prospective titles to Faber, Handheld, NYRB, Tough Poets, and others. But Mr. Davies, with his "We admit no colleagues" can pound sand.
