On The Take
By James Westcott, Alternet
Naomi Klein, one of the greatest cultural scrutinizers in North America today, has now moved from writing great books such as the influential No Logo to making great documentaries. Klein's documentary, The Take, focuses on worker-run factories in Argentina that are emerging in the wake of the nation's financial crisis in 2001. These sorts of factories are often more profitable than those with traditional labor relations. -- Elizabeth Dwoskin

Thorns in the Paw
By Staff, Clamor
In response to censorship, dismissals, media consolidation, and partisanship in the news media, Clamor magazine has asked a group of committed independent journalists to write about being an independent journalist under the Bush administration: what does it take to find stories, what's been left out, and how their work can make an impact. Andrew Stelzer of Free Speech Radio News said he was happy to be in Portland, and not New York, on 9/11. In Portland, he saw, 'a large and visible community that wasn't fooled.' When Bush came to town, 1500 people were there at the foot of the podium, protesting. -- Elizabeth Dwoskin
