Survey: What Blogs Do You (Really) Read?

Walking through Barnes & Noble today, one of the things that most struck me was how so many non-fiction books are published to confirm the sentiments of the people who buy them.  Obviously, people buying Ann Coulter or Frank Rich’s books are already aware that they will pretty much agree with the author before they read word one.  Other books, such as “What’s The Matter With California” are obviously aimed at confirming the views of the only people who would pick up such a tome in the first place.

Which leads me to wonder about what blogs we honestly read, on a weekly basis.  Not the ones we admire and will check on sometimes, but the ones we open almost every day, and read nearly every post from.  My list is below the fold.

Not including this site or dKos, these are my weekly reads:

Hit and Run – the blog of Reason Magazine

Radley Balko’s The Agitator, which is on our blogroll and is the best blog for my money online

Andrew Sullivan – sometimes awful, but strangely compelling.  I think it is largely because he is a writer, and the quality of writing shines through.

Unqualified Offerings – it is Jim Henley’s blog, and he’s great, but the gem here is co-blogger Thoreau

Marginal Revolution and Cafe Hayek – both blogs are from members of the George Mason Economics department, and are both largely to the right of me.  Yet both are filled with fascinating insights and information, even when I disagree.  Also, great food reviews.

Megan McArdle – what I love most about Megan is that she is willing to ask “dumb” questions and seek their answers, a thing most of us are too cowardly to do.  Also often disagreed with, but provocative.  And no one is as good, IMHO, at taking Ezra Klein down a notch.

Clearly, there is some bias in what I read.  Strangely, nearly all my weekly reads are to my political right, which is something I find curious (although this site and DK are much further to my left).  How about you?
