Power & Politics: Bloggerhead Sites of the Week
- November 27, 2009 7:00 PM |
- By Kady O'Malley
We'll have the video from today's segment up as soon as we can, but in the meantime, why not check out the Bloggerheads' sites of the week?
Bloggerhead Bill Tieleman picked Avaaz.org, which he says is the most successful online protest group in the world. As for me, I went with the Privy Council Office online archive of commissions of inquiry past -- and present. From the Dubin Inquiry into illegal doping to Justice Gomery's incendiary findings on sponsorship to an all but forgotten report on the 1928 Commission to Investigate and Report upon the Illegal Removal of Alcohol in Bond by the Sunset Vinegar Company, it's exactly the kind of nook in which a political junkie can virtually curl up for hours.
