• Whatever Happened to America's Ethical Values?

Virtually every day the American public is battered by media revelations of misconduct by corporate executives, government officials, and athletes. There are also disturbing reports of widespread cheating in the educational system, beginning with middle schools and continuing into high schools and universities. Professor Donald McCabe of Rutgers University, founder of the Center for National Integrity, has written that what they've found is that cheating starts early and grows, and this is most noticeable beginning in the fifth and sixth grade. Further disturbing news comes from Eli H Newberger, MD, who reported in his book, The Men They Will Become, that 88% of high achievers judged cheating to be common among their peers. Parents should establish a relationship of mutual trust with th...

• The Steve Smith Explosion

Smith covers classical music as a freelance reviewer for "Weekend America," a radio program produced by American Public Media. Good luck trying to reach him there, though; the Steve Smith who first comes to mind at the radio network's headquarters is Stephen Smith, executive editor of the documentary unit. The roster of Steve Smiths in journalism also includes Stephen Smith, medical reporter for the Boston Globe; Steve Smith, weather anchor for "First Coast News" in Jacksonville on channels NBC-12 and ABC-25; Steve Smith, online editor for JournalStar.com in Lincoln, Nebraska; Stephen Smith, culture correspondent for BBC's "Newsnight Review"; Steven Smith, chairman of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel; and Steve Smith, senior editor of Wireless Business Forecast.

• Taxpayers' Subsidization of War On Fox News

David Brock, the conservative turned liberal advocate, has recently garnered a considerable amount of press coverage for his attacks on Fox News for, among many other things, allegedly taking over leadership of the Republican Party. What the news coverage has ignored is his use of tax-free funds for his organization, Media Matters for America (MMA), for these attacks - a form of government support for activities that clearly do not merit tax-exempt status and that as a result infringe on Fox News' First Amendment rights. MMA was originally established as an Internal Revenue Service Section 501(c)(3) organization, that is, an organization that can receive tax-deductible contributions to engage in educational activities. The more precise purpose was to counter alleged media bias and so to...

The innovation that makes this visible is the maturation of opinion polling in the region pioneered by the Zogby organization, Shibley Telhami (Anwar Sadat Professor of Peace and Development at the University of Maryland), The Pew Research Center for the People & the Press, and others including the World Values Survey, so that public opinion can be read directly, in the usual practice of American political science, instead of intuited from "opinionators.
