I agree MJ is not breaking news, but since the issue has been raised I do have a bone to pick. On the night Jeb Bush issued an Executive Order to rescue Terri Schiavo, I posted the EO in breaking news just as the EO became available in the media. For that I got read the riot act by an FR admin moderator!
It was breaking news! So there is an element of arbitrariness on the control side too, IMHO, not only on the side of overly exhuberant FR posters.
