Interview: Corporatization of Universities Leads to Increased Academic Career Bias
http://truth-out.org/progressivepicks/item/24902-interview-corporatization-of-universities-leads-to-increased-academic-career-bias
Mark Karlin, Truthout: Angela P. Harris speaks with Truthout about a new anthology she coedited, Presumed Incompetent, in which 30 academics describe how universities balk at bestowing tenure on professors who are not white, straight, from the upper classes or otherwise "members of the club."
Tackling Inequality With Politics
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/24763-tackling-inequality-with-politics
Joseph M. Schwartz, Truthout: Thomas Piketty's bestseller, Capital in the Twenty-First Century, provided an economic framework for the startling rise of inequality, but the book too often downplayed political causes and failed to suggest enough plausible socialist solutions to help reverse the neoliberal trend.
Triumph for Citizens in Florida as Hughes Oil Company Drops Fracking Project
http://truth-out.org/news/item/24921-triumph-for-citizens-in-florida-as-hughes-oil-company-drops-fracking-project
Julie Dermansky, DeSmogBlog: Dan A. Hughes Oil Company and the Collier Resources Company agreed to terminate their lease agreement, with the exception of one well, next to the Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary in Naples, Florida. But without a moratorium on fracking, the state is still not safe from the fracking industry.

http://truth-out.org/news/item/24922-truthout-interviews-dr-jeff-ritterman-on-roundup-and-chronic-kidney-disease

ABC News Tells Viewers That Scenes of Destruction in Gaza Are in Israel
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/24925-abc-news-tells-viewers-that-scenes-of-destruction-in-gaza-are-in-israel
Rania Khalek, The Electronic Intifada: There is no equating the killing and maiming of dozens of innocent Palestinians with scared Israelis seeking shelter from crude rockets that rarely cause damage. But that hasn't stopped media outlets from trying, and in some cases, outright lying, to distort the violence.
Dean Baker | GDP and the Public Sector
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/24927-gdp-and-the-public-sector
Dean Baker, Center for Economic Policy and Research: The government and the economy are so thoroughly integrated it is impossible to separate the two. We should not imagine that we have an economy sitting out in space, which the government adds to or subtracts from.
SCOTUS in Review: Justice If You're Rich, Powerful or a Christian
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/24923-scotus-in-review-justice-if-youre-rich-powerful-or-a-christian
Crystal Shepeard, Care2: Looking over the past term, the Roberts Court has repeatedly sought to increase the rights of those who wish to oppress others. The Court is sending a clear message: that for those that do not share the values of the rich, powerful, Christian (and probably white) male, justice in the US is probably not for you.
The State of Runaway CEO Pay Resistance
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/24924-the-state-of-runaway-ceo-pay-resistance
Sarah Anderson, OtherWords: In the four years since President Obama signed the Dodd-Frank financial reforms into law, regulators have dragged their feet on implementing these executive compensation reforms. In this leadership vacuum, state and local activists and lawmakers are stepping up.
John Pilger | The Return of George Orwell and Big Brother's War: On Israel, Ukraine and Truth
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/24930-the-return-of-george-orwell-and-big-brothers-war-on-israel-ukraine-and-truth
John Pilger, CounterPunch: Like Iraq's embargoed infants, and Afghanistan's "liberated" women and girls, terrorized by the CIA's warlords, the ethnic people of Ukraine are media unpeople in the west, their suffering and the atrocities committed against them minimized or suppressed.
This week in Speakout: Reprieve notes that two prisoners at Guantanamo Bay are trying to take advantage of the recent Hobby Lobby decision to be granted the freedom to pray during Ramadan; Jeremy Brecher announces the historic People's Climate March has union backing; Kevin Zeese says whistleblower Edward Snowden going on trial in the US would be like Alice in Wonderland going to court; Kyi May Kaung warns caution is needed before calling Burma a democratic transformation miracle; Palina Prasasouk reports from a New York City march supporting the people of Gaza; Rebecca Vilkomerson, executive director of Jewish Voice for Peace, points out that the occupation of Palestinian lands by Israel with US support is the true cause of violence as Israel bombards the Gaza Strip; and more.
