Our friends at Media Matters have launched an excellent new media watch blog called County Fair:

Why "County Fair"?

Longtime Springsteen fans may have caught onto our new blogs's name; it's copped from the relatively obscure, Nebraska-era song of his. (Here's a nice analysis of the tune; here are the lyrics.) After running out of "media"-based name possibilities for the blog (we're pretty sure they've all been taken by now), we just liked the idea the song conveyed of a meeting place for folks to gather.

The blog is omnivorous, covering the full spectrum from left to right, from blogs to TV, from obscure (like the AP's McCain mole Ron Fournier) to the famous (Morning GOP's Joe Scarborough). And of course you'll find links to the excellent columns by Eric Boehlert and Jamison Foser.

Enjoy!
