Answers use saved listing facts and recorded sources.

What it does

Racket News is Matt Taibbi's English-language publication of news, features and commentary. Its official archive also includes conversations and other audio or live formats.

A substantial article is a useful introduction before a live discussion. The author's voice is prominent, so compare a contested conclusion with the reporting and sources that support it. The About page describes roughly weekly dispatches, readable by email or on the website. Subscribers also get earlier serialized books, separate from the latest news and commentary.
