MoJo Mix: 1 July 2009

Fight disinformation: Sign up for the free Mother Jones Daily newsletter and follow the news that matters.


Oh, Sarah Palin. You really are the gift that keeps on giving. But does the Vanity Fair profile of you really deserve such mass quantities of Republican vitriol? Kevin Drum investigates. Plus, three sweet and savory stories for your Canada Day MoJo Mix:

1) 5 troubling SCOTUS rulings you should really be an expert on by now.

2) Why Honduras is the butt of all Mexican jokes, coup be damned.

3) From editor to topless-club manager, and other tales from America’s endangered newspapers.

Fact:

Mother Jones was founded as a nonprofit in 1976 because we knew corporations and billionaires wouldn't fund the type of hard-hitting journalism we set out to do.

Today, reader support makes up about two-thirds of our budget, allows us to dig deep on stories that matter, and lets us keep our reporting free for everyone. If you value what you get from Mother Jones, please join us with a tax-deductible donation today so we can keep on doing the type of journalism 2022 demands.
