With our updated Alexa Traffic Rankings now suggesting that our young webzine has achieved greater readership than The Nation or The New Republic, two of America’s oldest and most venerable publications,  we have certainly made great strides over the last few years.  There does seem an important role for a convenient compendium of alternative media perspectives, both Left and Right, filling the gaping hole left open by a dishonest or cowardly mainstream media.

Meanwhile, the continuing reverberations of the Jeffrey Epstein case dominated this week’s most popular featured articles, with the top spot going to a discussion of the important questions that remain unasked  by Prof. Eric Rasmusen of Indiana University.  With such massive coverage of the case throughout our media, the fact that these important matters remain completely uninvestigated or even ignored, once again raises serious doubts about whether our press can be relied upon to play its alleged role in our society.  Ranking fifth was Gilad Atzmon’s discussion of a century-old parallel case, involving the Zwi Migdal, a powerful Jewish organized crime operation that trafficked large numbers of sex slaves from Poland to Argentina and elsewhere.  And in the sixth spot, just released yesterday but coming up very fast, was Kevin Barrett suggestion that the decades that Epstein’s blatant criminality remained ignored by the media and protected by law enforcement is quite similar to the 9/11 attacks, whose true facts have been equally suppressed.

Our second most popular featured article was Paul Kersey’s response to the enormous media coverage of yet another mass shooting in Texas, noting that no virtually so attention was paid to a nearly-concurrent mass shooting by a black gunman in Alabama, indicating that our biased media often tends to treat such crimes very differently based upon the race of the perpetrator.  And the current incident propelled into the fourth spot an older column by John Derbyshire, in which he condemned the Trump Administration for its apparent weakness on gun ownership rights, an issue of great important to many of the voters who put him into office.

And ranking third was Martin Witkerk’s extended review of Whiteshift,  a new book by Prof. Eric Kaufmann examining the ongoing racial transformations of both Europe and America and the resulting political controversies and upheavals.
