This is a platform to comment on local, state and national politics and political news. A special area of interest is the role of corporate media in politics as we move closer and closer to one huge corporation owning all of the media outlets in the country and stifling all independent and critical voices. It will also focus on the absurd 30-plus year Nixonesque political strategy of the “liberal media” lie. This blog is on temporary hiatus because of my job and thin-skinned Republicans.

Nobel Peace Prize winner to speak in Brighton
Nobel Peace Prize winner Dr. Henry Pollack will speak at the Crossroads Sierra Club meeting at the Brighton District Library on Wednesday March 17 on the pressing problem of global climate change, and the public is invited to listen and meet one of the world’s leading experts on the temperature of the Earth.
Dr. Pollack shared the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize with former vice president fellow member of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Al Gore. Pollack has been a professor of geophysics at the University of Michigan for more than 40 years, travels regularly to Antarctica and has conducted scientific research on all seven continents.
The Ann Arbor resident is also the author of “A World Without Ice” and “Uncertain Science . . . Uncertain World.” He now serves as a science adviser to Al Gore’s Climate Project.
Everyone is welcome to the event that begins at 7 p.m. The Brighton District Library is located at 100 Library Drive, 48116.
