Stories like this provide an indication of the importance of "alternative" media. While NPR and the corporate media focus on the horse race aspect of legislation (e.g., Ryan's budget bill), they typically fail to lay out the details. Think Cokie Roberts droning on about moderate democrats supporting "entitlements and tax reform," versus a thorough analysis of proposals that cut taxes for the rich and cut critical services to the poor and fragile in society.
