Week ending August 24th, 2012
Through a new documentary, Mexico wants to inform/remind you that it is more than drug cartels, violence and poverty. Through the enlistment of celebrities, documentarians, and personal stories, an emotional treatment is given to a country rich in so many things that do not make the front pages every day. The trailer feels a little forced, too much like propaganda, but the exercise is telling in it of itself. –Ramon

For 10 years Andrea Seabrook was a reporter for NPR. She covered mostly US Politics and Congress. She recently left her Public Radio post and has a new blog that will help you understand politics (and politicians) better. In these times of 24 hour news cycle, news personalities and corporate interests, it’s always good to have a different or fresh perspective on the issues. I personally expect less politically correct talk and more in-depth analysis. Something tells me I can find it here. –Pavel
