Monsanto Considered Legal Action Against Neil Young Over Critical Album

Agribiz giant Monsanto began collecting data on Neil Young after he put out a 2015 album critical of the multinational conglomerate.  The company also kept tabs on other individuals and media outlets that spoke out or reporting any negative. Paul Simon played a transcendent set at Outside Lands in San Francisco last night. He brought out Bob Wier for a duet of "The Boxer," the first time they ever played together. He hushed the crowd with a particularly moving "Sound of Silence," after what had been a tumultuous week in our political discourse. Foster the People tweeted out wild conspiracy yesterday that claims convicted sex offender and wealthy financier Jeffrey Epstein is still alive. And a coroner has concluded that Silver Jews and Purple Mountains frontman David Berman died by his own hand last week.
