Economics & Libertarianism
Ludwig von Mises Institute
Simply the best economics website in the world. Thousands of articles. Hundreds of free books, audio and video lectures, and much much more.
LewRockwell.com
The best commentary from an Austro-libertarian perspective. Some of my favorite columnists there are William Anderson, Thomas Woods, Roderick Long and Robert Higgs.
AntiWar.com
Because war is bad and this website tells the world so in great detail. Shows what goes on behind the 'CNN-reality'. My favorite part is AntiWar Radio with the great Scott Horton.
Glenn Greenwald blog
Detailed and biting ongoing analysis of the ugly partnership between politicians, journalists and intellectuals.
Independent Institute
Excellent free market think tank.
Foundation for Economic Education
Ditto.
Funny
Newstopia
Brilliant, absurd but very intelligent current-events comedy. See for example the clip below.
Daily Show
Very funny, though at times annoying because of liberal bias, and the respect with which they treat some of their guests.
Hans Teeuwen
(Formerly?) brilliant Dutch comedian. Below is the English version of his infamous "Nostradamus" song. The original Dutch version is better, but since yiou likely don't speak Dutch this will have to do.
The Colbert Report
See Daily Show.
GeenStijl
Obnoxious, controversial and over-the-edge, but very funny when ridiculing those in power.
