I'm not sure why, but I had it in my mind that Mother Jones was some sort of whacko ultra-left organization. But reading through a dozen pieces on their website yesterday (haven't yet gotten to the prison story) I was pretty impressed. They can have some of my dollars as well.
They've had their moments. I think they kinda toed the wrong line on the vaccine thing but I can't find any citations. I sort of put them in the same Venn diagram as Mother Earth News and Adbusters, both of which tend to feed the libertarian/prepper posse as well.
