Just shared Untitled Gate with a fund manager whose job is to analyze trends, especially social trends that effect the market. Looking forward to his reaction. My reaction is that Taibbi's writing is clean, on point and incisive. Regardless of one's position on these issues , Matt's analysis has to be addressed by any historian who reviews these issues. Kudos Matt.

Regular people are waking up! At our family Christmas gathering this year my boomer dad exclaimed how he didn't trust the news anymore as each outlet gave wildly different interpretations of events, depending on the owner's political bias. I gave him some good alternative sources and he was really interested in reading your book, Hate Inc. - he even wrote the name down so he could remember buy it later. Slowly but surely the cable outlets are being hoist on their own petard, helped along by truth tellers such as yourself. Looking forward to the new year when, hopefully, these self-appointed gatekeepers will be thrust aside in the search for the truth and nothing but the truth.
