Disney’s Daily Blast
Slinking around Walt’s online kingdom is the Daily Blast, Disney’s attempt to sell ESPN sports scores and Winnie the Pooh dolls to youngsters at bargain basement prices. The Daily Blast isn’t very exciting, unless kiddies are into “D-mail” nowadays, but this site shows Netizens how Disney pals around with Microsoft: The Daily Blast is a paid-subscription site, unless the visitor has a Microsoft Network account.

WE DON'T KNOW

What's going to happen next as the headlines grow crazier and more disconcerting by the day. But we do know the job of an independent, unrelenting press is more important than ever—and the ongoing commitment of MoJo readers to fight for a democracy where facts matter and all can participate is absolutely vital.

If you feel the urgency deep in your bones like we do, please consider signing up as a monthly donor during our fall pledge drive to support Mother Jones' fair and fearless reporting for the long haul (or make a one-time gift if that works better for you). The headlines may fade, but the need to investigate the powerful never will.
