The local "alternative newspaper" in Portland, Oregon is running a
cover story titled 'The Rebel Alliance: An unlikely army of hacker
hippies, geek visionaries, idealistic teachers and corporate giants
is making Portland ground zero of a digital revolution.' .

The article does give the average reader a good introduction to what
Linux is, why it's important, and some of the politics surrounding
it.
