I have a question for everybody: okay, so this article was spiked from Breaking News, but why was my subtitle removed? I almost always put subtitles. Since when is that not okay?

I don't see why your story was spiked from Breaking News considering the garbage that resides there right now, including:

1) Israeli Transportation Minister approves plan for world s first airborne casino

2)'Tull's Tawkin' about IMMIGRATION - tonight, Tuesday May 28, 2002

3) Brian Williams to replace Tom Brokaw after the 2004 Elections

4)Bomb squad detonated device in Minneapolis [That turned out to be a pair of tennis shoes]

5) Power Traders Deny Enron-Style Trading; Many Point to Cal-ISO [Why the hell is anything and everything about Enron Breaking News?!]

6) " King Karl Gets Ready" or Howie 'The Weasel' Fineman Gets Nervous About 2004 [Some schmuck writing an article in Newsweek making fun of Bush is Breaking News?!]

7) FBI set to unveil reorganization plans [The FBI announcing that they are changing their office symbols and re-arranging their organizational charts is Breaking News?!]

Moderators: If the Breaking News sidebar needs to be cleaned up, then fine, do it. But some uniform standards should be applied. There are 4-day-old stories and stories that turned out to be nothing that are still there. And anything and everything about Enron is NOT breaking news.
