RSS Feed Fixed…?

• Media • Pandagon

RSS feed should be fixed. (Maybe? Maybe not?)

Also, thank you, Politico, for publishing the definitive pushback on the McCain “celebrity” meme. On the first Saturday in August. At 5:29 PM. Paradoxically, this article could theoretically get more play if they didn’t publish it.

Don’t mean to rain on the parade, but the author still doesn’t show up in my RSS reader (Vienna). I tried unsubing and resubing—still no author listing.

Off topic, but important.

Now do you believe me? (not that you care since you were just being an idiot, posting news fad du jour. (yes, that’ll be an article from pretty big investment site)

freedom my ass. Completely lack of thinking.

Whether Robert Mugabe deserves to be in Washington’s honor roll of villains alongside Fidel Castro, Saddam Hussein, Milosevic, Ahmadinejad, and Adolf Hitler, however, it is not the reason Washington and London have made Zimbabwe regime change priority number one for their Africa policy.

What his sin is seems to have more to do with his attempts to get out from under Anglo-American neo-colonial serfdom dependency and to pursue a national economic development independent of the International Monetary Fund and World Bank. His real sin seems to be the fact that he has turned to the one nation that offers his government credits and soft loans for economic development with no strings attached—The Peoples’ Republic of China.

Western media accounts conveniently tend to omit the second major party to what is a huge tug of war between Anglo-American interests and China to get control of Zimbabwe’s vast mineral wealth. We should keep in mind that for Washington there are always “good dictators” and “bad dictators.” The difference is whether the given dictator serves US national interests or not. Mugabe clearly is in the latter category.

Hmm. Turns out the author is there, just in the main body text, not the post title. This is definitely an improvement, but it’s nonstandard and less than ideal—for other multi-author blogs, I can see the author in the datestamp—i.e, in the feed for Obsidian Wings, I see:

Mark Salter and ‘The One’
Today at 10:56 PM - hilzoy

[…]

It’s Official
Yesterday at 2:03 PM - publius

… without having to click on an individual post. That’s how it used to work on Pandagon, too (at Blogsome).

But for the current Pandagon RSS feed, I see:

I have to click on each post and check the actual body text to see the author attribution. Better than before, still not as good as it was.
