Very good and we should keep track of them.

My list so far (feel free to add on) for this year:

Spying on American citizens (turns out to be listening to calls from overseas terrorist sanctuaries)

EXXon-Mobil's CEO's excessive retirement package (not unlike some big media stars like Uncle Walter Cronkite or Tom Brokjaw)

Sam Alito's membership in a supposed white supremacist group of Princeton alumni (Ted Kennedy still belongs to a Harvard group that doesn't allow women!)

When I lived in the Caribbean back in the Seventies, I subscribed to the Telegraph airmail edition, so I read scary headlines three days after I had heard the defusing of the crisis du jour by listening to BBC radio. It had a very calming effect on my ability to tolerate crisis journalism.

What do you think about no one talking about the terror cell suspects arrested in Canada yesterday? Not interesting to Fox panelists or any Sunday show "authorities"? Avoidance-of-anything-that-reflects-badly-on-Moslems Syndrome?

Let's not forget the what? 500 million that the great contributer to American culture Howard Stern got.

Never heard the rats complaining about that.
