New Sarah McLachlan video: the $150,000 meant to make the video, was given to world charities
The video is emotionally moving, and looks not bad for the "$15" she spent on it.

Do Newspapers Make Good Business News Look Bad?
The New York Times reports in detail about a study by two researchers that purports that newspaper headlines are much harsher on the economy during Republican presidencies than Democratic ones. Of course, that might be because from 1991-2004 the economy has suffered more under Republican presidencies...but I'd need a research grant to be sure. 
Oh, and at the end of the article, the NYT finally mentions that one of the researchers has "come under criticism [when he acknowledged] that he assumed a pseudonym -- Mary Rosh -- to write his own praise and defend his positions in online debate on [gun ownership as crime deterrant] from 2000 through January 2003." The other was an adviser to Senator John McCain, Republican of Arizona, during his bid for the presidency in 2000.
And these guys are investigating bias. I guess it's a subject near and dear to them.
