The Daily Howler is Back

I was concerned that the Daily Howler web site had become permanently inactive . There were no new articles in the month of April. However, this week, the Howler has three new articles—one being a short but devastating piece on Ann Coulter.
For those of you not familiar with the Howler, it is one of the top media watchdog web sites. During the 2000 campaign, The Howler was one of the lone voices out there seriously analyzing the media bias regarding Al Gore’s alleged lies. I recommend reading the entire 2000 archives. One of the Howler’s most important scoops regarding the 2000 (s)election came in 2001 when the Howler uncovered journalistic misconduct by Bill Sammon in his book At Any Cost. (Click here, here, and here for other Howler critiques of Sammon’s book).

Let’s not forget how The Howler uncovered the hilarious blunder by Andrew Sullivan regarding media bias. The Howler also was one of the first voices to respond to the Moonie Times smear of the Bill Clinton regarding his November 2001 Georgetown speech (click here, here, and here). It's good to see that The Howler is back.
