Follow the Latest News (and Lack of News!) on the Shutdown at Reason 24/7

But what will it mean for Amanda Bynes?!!! I must know!
Reason

The national monuments have been deflated, folded up and stored in a shed behind the White House. Media drones are shocked – shocked! – that the Statue of Liberty is closed for business, even though she was closed for years following the 9/11 attacks, her head finally reopening for visitors in 2009. Government employees have been sent home! Well, at least a small percentage of them, anyway.

For anybody wanting to keep track of the latest shutdown news (How will it affect upcoming hearings on federal marijuana regulations?) but don't want to have to endure the psychological punishment of having a cable news network on all day, may I suggest taking frequent visits to Reason 24/7, which aggregates the latest, freshest news reports and gets it in front of you without the faux pundit outrage (unless we're being sarcastic about it). The latest headlines can also be tracked with our Twitter feed, and our Reason app. We've posted several news links already this morning connected to the shutdown and we plan to keep it up all day.

And when you get tired of shutdown news, we'll still be posting other stories as well.

Start your day with Reason. Get a daily brief of the most important stories and trends every weekday morning when you subscribe to Reason Roundup.
