More Newsletters Worth Reading

I posted a while back about some newsletters that I've subscribed to and have been reading regularly. Since then, I've added several to my list of subscriptions. I'm finding them a better source of news and analysis than much of the mainstream media, especially the US media. So here are a few more to look at. 

• Special Intelligence by Malcolm Nance: Nance is a retired US Navy Senior Chief who writes about national security, counter-terrorism, and domestic extremism. His latest post is about possible US plans to attack Iran. I heard about that a couple of days ago and dismissed it as the usual conspiracy theory noise until I read Nance's post about the US deploying a third of its B-2 stealth bombers to the Indian ocean. 
• Dean Blundell describes himself as a "media guy, content provider, dog whisperer, Canadian raconteur, muckraker". His newsletter is mostly about politics. A friend described him as "a bit shouty" but he's worth reading, especially if you're Canadian. 
• Warren's War Room by Warren Kinsella: Kinsella is a Canadian lawyer, author, musician, political consultant, and commentator who has written for a wide range of publications. His coverage of the current Canadian election campaign is quite good.  
• Decoding Politics by Jared Wesley: Wesley is a professor of political science and member of the Black Faculty Collective at the University of Alberta. More Canadian politics, focusing on the Western provinces.
• Paul Krugman: Economics, politics, and finance (mostly) from the Nobel-prize-winning economist and refugee from the New York Times.
• Relix Daily: A newsletter focusing on the jamband and indie music scene.
• Nature Briefing: A daily update on science news from Nature, one of the leading science journals.
• Everything Jazz: The site exists mostly to sell albums but they publish good articles that are highlighted in the newsletter.
• Defending Canadian Democracy by Emmett Macfarlane: "Focused on providing informed analysis of events in Canadian politics and constitutional law in Canada."
• How to Survive the Broligarchy: Political commentary from Carole Cadwalladr, an investigative journalist with the Guardian & Observer.

I will be publishing another list of tech newsletters that I subscribe to next week.
