Justicia Ex Machina: The Myth of The Machine/Progressive Binary In San Francisco Politics
Synopsis:
The subject of Huntington W. Sharp's commentary in New College of California's Law Review is the intersection of politics and media in mid-2000s San Francisco. This intersection is the lens through which Sharp surveys the city's history, introduces the major players at that time, and discusses the news media landscape. He proposes that the "establishment/progressive" binary that colors much of the city's political thought is an oversimplification driven more by the need to sell newspapers and raise money than to describe various politicians' viewpoints and agendas accurately.
