Links #1

Time for a new (lazy) type of post: a list of links to some articles that I've read recently and think you might find interesting. I distinguish them by their length, but I don't want you to not read one because I call it "long"—often my willingness to impose their length on my loyal readership means that they are not to be missed.


Here are the links:

Short article: Salon: opinion article about how the Pulitzer Prize for investigative reporting this year was not reported on many major TV networks because it implicated them in a scandal.

Short article: Columbia Journalism Review: about the dangers of using Wikipedia (and how major news outlets sometimes misuse it).

Medium-long article: NYTimes: about credit card companies trying to analyze which of their (prospective) customers are most likely to pay their credit card bills. Also an insight into the immorality of credit card companies.

Long article: The Atlantic: about why business management theory is not really that helpful in the business world. Read if you're interested in going into business; can be of interest otherwise, too.



More to come shortly (which for this blog means within a month).
