Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them: A Fair and Balanced Look at the Right
Finally got around to starting Al Franken's book, which I picked up in the States when I couldn't seem to find it in the foreign bookstores in Tokyo (it turns out that it WAS available here but in the British export trade paperback with a cover I didn't recognize and hence overlooked). No pictures of the Lying Liars themselves or even of Franken on the cover, just a shot of generic politician standing behind a bank of media microphones while hiding his face.

Funny, depressing, and mean-spirited (in good way)) so far. Kinda makes me glad I live outside of the right-wing mediasphere, so I'm exposed to their toxic-sludge-disguised-as-news directly.
