		<description><![CDATA[All the King&#8217;s Men, by the late Robert Penn Warren, just might be the greatest American political novel. I also love Robert Rossen&#8217;s classic film adapted from the book, and now Sony is releasing a second ATKM-based movie (image). May I suggest that the spirit of Huey Long, the crooked Southern politician on whom Warren [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;Minneapolis libraries are in terrible financial condition. Not even during the 1930s was library staff reduced by 27 percent, as occurred last year, or were branch library doors closed three and four days per week, as they are today. No other major American city offers library patrons fewer hours of service.&#8221; &#8211; Library Board must [...]]]></description>

But as TeleBlog regulars know, I&#8217;m not a fan of this guy&#8211;or of the present Chinese leaders or the PR campaign that a buzz-minded ad agency cooked up for Friends of the Minneapolis Public Library. So I read with interest a note from Robert Nagle [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dorothea Salo has done two anti-Gorman posts&#8211;Why I&#8217;ll Quit ALA and Your Own Size. I think she&#8217;s right in criticizing Gorman for putting down hip-hip culture as simplistic. There are racist implications here&#8211;far, far more serious than Gorman&#8217;s hatred of blogs and e-books. Of course, things can tie in with each other. E-books, for example, [...]]]></description>

Now Minneapolis TV station KMSP has run the following story: Library Throwing Away Books These are strange times for the Minneapolis Public Library system. As they build a new [...]]]></description>

Minneapolis, where a sister-in-law of the mayor tried to do spin control on bloggers while on the payroll of the Star-Tribune, just might be a classic case. The relationship may or may not have counted. But the newspaper&#8217;s [...]]]></description>
