Dear patient readers,
Starting this Monday, we will have Monday to Friday coverage for our Coffee Break slots! So please be sure to check in every weekday at 2:00 PM Eastern for yet more stimulating coverage!
Both of our new writers have extensive and impressive histories. Nat Wilcox Turner, who will be posting Monday and Wednesday, is an old-school blogger from the Netroots days, and has also worked on election campaigns, including for national candidates you heard of, so his main focus will be on US politics. He also has a strong history in covering a sports field in depth, and so he may also write occasionally about the economics of sports.
Curro Jimenez will be publishing on Thursday. He currently works for a major non-US media outlet, so we are grateful that he is moonlighting for us. His areas of expertise are the Middle East, Latin America, and to a lesser degree, Africa, with an eye to how the power nexus seeks to maintain the status quo. So please welcome them! And hope you enjoy the fresh voices and the additions to your information diet!
Welcome indeed! Even though it will mean I’m likely to stay behind the times at least some of the time. . . .
Yes, welcome. I’m looking forward to the reading.
Hoooorrraayy! This could get very interesting. Political insider and outsider competing for our attention! I’ll have to learn to like caffeine just to keep up. Onward we roll.

Boy, I’m sure that he will suffer no shortage of material to write about these days. And I look forward to Curro Jimenez’s thoughts on Global Majority countries. Welcome aboard, guys.
Welcome aboard!
Ah, a diversity of voices! That’s what the “Arena of Ideas” is all about.
A Multi-Polar World needs multi polar information sources. Now, with all the weekday afternoons covered here on Naked Capitalism, I’m going to have to wean myself off of ‘Days of Our Lives.’
Welcome! Looking forward to your pieces
Hello new people and welcome to the most remarkable blog on the internet.
Awesome news. I’m so happy to see both of these experienced writers join this team of brilliant iconoclasts.
This is why NC is a daily go to — nowhere else will you find equivalent breadth and depth with respect to the most salient issues of the day.

Nat Turner,
We need you on the US Politics beat like ASAP!
Class Politics, Not Identity Politics!
Once again, Yves is beefing up the Naked Capitalism roster with voices we need to hear. Welcome, Nat Wilcox Turner and Curro Jimenez. I can’t wait to spend my weekday afternoons learning what you’re going to bring us! And a shout-out to the inimitable Lambert, whose yellow waders have taken four talented writers to fill.
