I highly recommend you check out a new Memphis web log, Half-Bakered, which aims to expose the bias and errors published in the Memphis media - especially the Commercial-Appeal and the Memphis Flyer, with some political commentary tossed in. The names refers to prominent and ultra-liberal Memphis political commentator Jackson Baker (hence the name "Half-Bakered").

The author of Half-Bakered - who goes only by the name "m" - writes "we are still new and trying to keep up with the demands of near-daily blogging. And we are still trying to find our voice and style. We would also like to acknowledge a debt. We discovered your blog through TaxFreeTennessee, during the past couple of years and the budget/income tax debate. Our efforts are modelled, in no small part, on your example. Thank you!"

Half-Bakered already offers some good stuff, including this obliteration of a recent column by C-A "reporter" Bartholomew Sullivan, who I also take on in this recent essay.

Also, because one good link deserves another... here's Half-Bakered's comments on the Colorado plan.

Welcome to the fray, m.
