The sad thing is that many Americans will read this and believe it.

I had two friends over the other night insisting that she was charged with insider trading....

Facts are so damned inconvenient and messy...plus they take a whole 5 minutes to discover on the internet.

I am not a fan of Ms. Stewart or her politics, but this trial is an orchestrated witch-hunt.

And how would you describe getting information on a Federal drug disapproval from the head of the company and/or his wife before the public release of the info? A normal trading opportunity? Ms. Stewart was a stockbroker. She knows the rules and she willingly broke them. She then tried to play the victim. It's pathetic and she deserves a long jail sentence with her buddy, Waksal. But then she clearly thinks that she's above the law -- and why not, she hangs with all the "best" people.
