Peter K. wrote: >Whoosh, unawares I was at a bar and someone mentioned >the Dow dropped 400 today. Huh? And narry a comment on LBO-list. It's interesting. Previous downdrafts have typically been greeted in left circles as the onset of the Big One. This time, the mood seems less excited. Maybe this is a new kind of contrary indicator - the relative absence of catastophist discourse where it had previously been endemic might be symptomatic of a mass psychology that underestimates the serious ...

Wall Street Journal online - July 19, 2002 My Summer School By BRIAN MCGUIRE In summer 1931, the journal Class Struggle noted an educational triumph: "The classes of our workers school have been unusually successful. More than 30 workers attended the class in volume one of Marx's Capital, the most popular of them all." The tradition continues. This past week, the Brecht Forum, on 27th Street in Manhattan, offered its 24th annual "intensive study" in Marxism -- for workers and ...

29214 bottom nearing? -- rank: 1000

29215 Martha rally fizzles -- rank: 1000
New York Post - July 19, 2002 PRO-MARTHA RALLY A BIT UNDERDONE By GILL SMITH A rally for embattled domestic diva Martha Stewart was more of a bust than a boost yesterday - when only four people bothered to show up. Organizers expected more than 50 fans to gather outside the CBS studios on Fifth Avenue, where Stewart has been a no-show for a weekly slot on the "Early Show," offering cooking and decorating tips. Stewart hasn't been on the show since a disastrous interview on June 25, whe ...

Deal Highlights Media's Dilemma By Howard Kurtz When Enron collapsed amid spectacular scandal, the New York Times repeatedly assailed the company in editorials for its tangled finances.
