From Zero Hedge's Tyler Durden.
Seriously.
I'm not entirely sure where the above link is going to end up taking you.
Zero Hedge is pretty clear that they don't really care that much whether you're reading them or not.
I'm a member, it took a week or ten days to hear back from them.
They finally informed me that I seemed cool since I was human and hadn't nagged, so I could join.
The writing is different from any you'll read anywhere else.
It's probably mostly a site for trader/speculator types.
It can get a little deep.
My only concern is that I am in violation of the first rule of Zero Hedge.
Regardless, I recommend it.

Highly recommended.
The headlines are all about sovereign debt at the moment.
But that is only part of the problem.
The debt is also broken down by sector.
Bill Bonner at the Daily Reckoning does a nice job here in analyzing the Greek debt crisis simply, and with the possible exception of a central banker or your garden variety EU bureaucrat, in language anybody can understand.

Recomended.
Greek communists are usually a reliable bastion of error and darkness.
