America fails the Founders quiz

Glenn came across a shocking poll today that shows Americans have no clue when it comes to America. Obviously everyone can forget dates and occasionally confuse which event happened first and so on.

Find out where America stands. ( Transcript, Insider Audio) Check out the survey results HERE.

Non-conservative conservative strikes again

Krugman half right?

Discover the Next Great Thriller Writer!

Seven Days, our Fusion Magazine serial novel project is now moving into its fourth (!) year. We’ve been lucky enough to have household names like James Patterson, Daniel Silva and Nelson DeMille all contribute, but part of the fun is also in discovering the next great thriller writer, and we have a terrific new candidate: Patrick Lee.

Lee’s first book, called The Breach, is one of those that you’ll read in three nights, then be disappointed to find out that you can’t yet buy the sequel. A member of our staff read a pre-release copy and can’t recommend it highly enough (assuming you don’t mind missing some sleep). Best of all, The Breach is a paperback original that can be bought for less than $8. Get your copy now and then be sure to look for Lee’s Seven Days chapter in an upcoming issue of Fusion.
