Straight Goods
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Straight Goods is a Canadian independent online news magazine, usually publishing about twenty new stories every week. Publisher Ish Theilheimer founded it in 1999, with the support of about thirty shareholders. Its first edition went online in January 2000.
SG's slogan is, "Saving you money — Protecting your rights — Untangling spin". In keeping with this slogan, civil and human rights, consumer information and media criticism appear in every weekly issue. As well, SG has at least one weekly column about the labour movement and a strong emphasis on environmental issues. Readers regularly find original articles by outstanding thinkers such as Mel Watkins, Stephen Lewis, Linda McQuaig, Armine Yalnizyan, Aaron Freeman, Gordon Guyatt, Cathy Crowe, Stewart Steinhauer, and Charles Gordon, as well as "Hot Headlines", which are summaries and links to interesting articles in other publications.
