Journalist James Fallows has been associated with The Atlantic since the 1970s. More than most bloggers with a far-flung set of interests, he keeps returning to the same subjects: false equivalence in coverage of American politics, Chinese-American relations, the admirable American craft beer industry, newspaper headlines (especially from the China Daily), interesting software, the pleasures and perils of flying small aircraft, a Minnesota radio broadcaster named Tommy Mischke. Reading his thoughts on all of these topics — and higher-profile matters such as NSA surveillance — is like spending time in the company of a smart friend whose interests become your interests.
