That'll get not just the Islamic radicals bent all out of shape, but the rest of the social conservative lunatics as well. Excellent idea, but I think that and more are already available for those with sufficiently large incomes to qualify for State bailouts.
If by lack of AAA game titles, well yes that probably doesn't help adoption by hardcore gamers. So very sorry your itch isn't sufficiently scratched. But you know, you are quite welcome to pitch in and address the issue. Maybe with you being so well placed with Big Media you would have some pull? Or are you just having WoW withdrawl? that does run here, you know.
I'd say some niche markets are underserved at present but, largely, those communities are building their own tools now. For instance audio, animation and font folks are getting into their blood that the only folks who can properly address their "market" are the ones who are motivated, that is themselves.
So,
content: only if you limit the definition to broadcast "content"
fragmentation: aka diversity, and largely compatible with each other
ideology: an ideology that is strengthened by great internal diversity
Be careful not to read a newspaper. You might get exposed to some classified information. You might accidentally commit treason. You know those journalists. They investigate; they report; they cause all sorts of trouble.
MJ for the mellow is all well and good, but what about growing hemp (low-THC cousin of MJ) for textiles? It's about time we stop subsidizing the cotton industry.
The accounting and copyrights work out such that the musicians are essentially employees rather than "independent artists." This is all much like the tech industry was doing with contractors. They'd keep the workers as contractors for years so's to not have to pay benefits. Contract workers from a few select tech companies sued and won, and now we're treated a little bit less like cattle.
I wonder how quickly the music and movie industries would wise up if they had to choose.
A permanent base is one thing. A permanent base for humans is quite another. Much of the benefit of having humans on the spot can be gained as easily by having humans drive by remote. Either way will encourage technological development.
Don't worry, the human diaspora into the rest of the solar system will come. We're just not ready for it technologically yet.
I gave up at "I believe that there are two sides to every question and try to look at them both." If the author is logic-impaired enough to push a false dichotomy, I don't want to have anything to do with her study.
Or is the target audience one that will fall for that?
Still fighting the crusades in 2010. They made a full frontal attack on 1st amendment. They only knocked the 13th amendment around a little. Don't worry though, you can be sure that's next.
Note: I'm perfectly fine with teaching about the religious fundamentalism that was part of our early history. It's erasing the parts about how and why we have slowly overcome our collective bigotry to become the largely pluralistic society we are today that bugs me.

So who benefits financially?
That was fast. Did they not read and discuss it, or were they simply in on it from the beginning?
They're out to make a buck. In this search, they're asking congress to abrogate their responsibilities.
Please also review the 14th amendment and the concept of due process.
My accountant demands that I use quickbooks. :(
The ledger part isn't the problem though. It's the legal (tax) mire and the proprietary file formats.

Take that! That'll teach you to compete with me.
I've long maintained that crazy wasn't exclusive to religioists. It's so nice to be finally vindicated. :(
Examples?
journalism has always been about what will sell papers or garner eyeballs
That's called publishing. Journalism is quite different and is becoming less dependent on publishing, as evidenced by wikileaks.

I think the word you're looking for is "struthious".
I couldn't say. It's too expensive. But, c'mon, even birch feels fine when it's processed.

A disturbed person used a public forum to hurt someone I know, so we shouldn't let anyone use a public forum.

And where pray tell does he propose to get the necessary water for this project?
I for one applaud amazon's efforts at destroying the patent system by demonstrating the extent of its absurdity.

We know her election would benefit those who can afford lawyers to parse the law to the point it is meaningless.

So that settles the debate: simulated violence is good for you.
Obviously that applies at least as much to sex. Right?
