Today on the Dish we continued to keep tabs on Haiti. More heartbreaking images here, here, and here. A stirring firsthand account here. Brad Plumer explained why the all buildings collapsed and Tyler Cowen dreaded the looming anarchy. You can easily help out.
At last, Sarah Palin sat down with Glenn Beck. Andrew drilled into the interview's deeper and darker meaning here and here. Readers backed him up here and here, another tried to calm him down, and another called out Beck's ignorance. Frum saw it all as therapy and we got a glimpse of the show down the road.
On Prop 8, we collected tweets from the trial, Andrew homed in on a core issue, and DiA conveyed the importance of the courtroom. Up in Massachusetts, Blumenthal assessed the Senate race and Ambinder sensed some moderation from the tea-partiers. Andrew wrung his hands over Israel. More on Iran's ideological split here and the dangers of terrorists and traffic accidents here.
In meth coverage, we aired another visceral account of addiction, Andrew discussed its ties to religious fundamentalism, and a reader dialed him back a bit. We also recognized the role of magazines this decade and noticed the spread of the underblogger model.
