Since 1998, The Scoop was operating off of TheScoop.Com. The founder of TheScoop.Com, which went live in 1998, had previously operated as The Scoop as a print newsletter medium dating back to 1984/1985.
In 2012, somebody made The Scoop a juicy enough of an offer to buy TheScoop.Com and it was accepted. We wish TheScoop.Com and it's new owners much luck in whatever they do.
TheScoop.Info is where The Scoop, formerly at TheScoop.Com, will continue building a news and information website along with a network of city by city sites with handpicked local information of substance.
We are going through the blogs which are being moved over to the new URL, here at TheScoop.Info, and finding broken links to old stories/posts and fixing them.

American Gothic - Today's Sign of the Times
A real nice acquaintance I know from dining at the bar of the Library Alehouse in Santa Monica showed me this photo he shot and made into this Sign of the Times. The homeless couple, in Chicago if I'm not mistaken, posed for this photo.
Don't let yourself go. Prevention is easier than finding a cure. Read books like these and take action.

Ron Paul in 2002, opposing Iraq War Resolution before Congress
This shows how much foresight Ron Paul had back in 2002. He was one of the few, actually one of only six Republicans, who voted against the Iraq War. Listen to this address before Congress, and in hindsight, you'll know Ron Paul is the pro-peace candidate with very good reasoning and NOT a fear mongering fool like the others in DC.

Kelly Clarkson courageously endorses Ron Paul for President - Doesn't Back Down
Kelly Clarkson - Mr. Know It All
I have always considered myself to be the Anti-Kelly Clarkson. And, it feels real good when I am proven wrong with my feelings about someone that once irritated me. It was not necessarily her, personally, that was irritating. It was the way the media hyped her up, musically, and in other ways that probably even bothered Clarkson.
Something good that Clarkson did, made me stand up and take notice. Clarkson courageously made a contrarian move away from the liberal left Hollywood standard and endorsed a real Washington rebel named Ron Paul for President via her official twitter account. The tweet stated that she loved Ron Paul. (see Twitter.Com/Kelly_Clarkson).
Her song, Mr. Know it All, (above video) is as if it were written for the wrath she has received from a loud vicious minority of her following. This song could be the answer to sends to those fans that maybe they don't really know Clarkson at all.
The thing I liked most about her endorsement is that she didn't back down from those who slammed her online and still are trying to raise their voices above Ron Paul supporters on all of her social networks on twitter, facebook and youtube.
Bravo, Kelly Clarkson! You got this writers attention for the first real time. But, you have risen to the occasion. You now have a new fan aright here.

Sally Fallon Morell of the Weston A. Price Foundation bucks common health wisdom, with substantive impact.
From The Scoop on Health
Sally Fallon Morell, known to many as Sally Fallon, is one of the most contrarian nutritional experts in the U.S., who has a background and wealth of knowledge, which bucks the common wisdom of industrialized, big pharma and big agri controlled federal level food oversight.
As a story entitled "Against odds, Lipitor became world's top seller" hit the newswires today, it made me wonder what Sally Fallon would say about the way this drug was marketed and whether it is a necessary drug or not. And, would she say cholesterol blocking drugs are good or have any benefit? I think that she would not and she would have a very good argument as to why they are not good. And, this press conference below, where she speaks in detail about Cholesterol, is a small glimpse of contrarian information on the subject from a well researched, scientific perspective.
In the video below, Sally Fallon Morell of the Weston A. Price Foundation (WestonAPrice.Org) hosted a press conference with concerned scientists and nutrition researchers on Feb 14, 2011. In her introductory remarks she describes the Flaws in the 2010 USDA Dietary Guidelines, with a particular emphasis of the impact on school lunch programs.
