Cursor's Media Patrol - 09/28/05

After being 'Indicted in Campaign Finance Probe,' Rep. Tom Delay announced that "I will temporarily step aside from my position as majority leader."

'When We Were Psychos' Michael Atkinson says that "Winter Soldier" may have been "the most important film of the Johnson-Nixon era, and yet it was effectively censored. Its release, 33 years too late, is also a few years overdue this decade."

Mike Davis asks '25 Questions about the Murder of New Orleans,' where most of the 'Prisoners Abandoned to Floodwaters' "had not even been brought before a judge and charged, much less been convicted."

Atrios runs an op-ed by Rick Perlstein that was "rejected or simply ignored" by major newspapers, in which rumors of "fake evacuees trying to stir up trouble and riot" remind him of the image of "a farmer quaking at the vision of black looters invading the cornfields of Iowa" in the 1960s.
