L&N Bridge fire was arson; paint hurt, but structure OK
I missed this story, I don't know if was even published before today. I would assume that the arson would somehow related to the people doing the construction work on the bridge. I wonder if they are looking into any nut cases who may have had a more political motive for setting the fire.

Workers take Xerox to court for 'blacks in a noose' discrimination
More international media coverage, this time not good coverage. Cincinnati will not take full blame for this lawsuit, but indirectly it will be damaged.

Festival seating defended
If the experts ok it, then why should anyone else be shaking in the their shoes? The amount of hand wringing on some message boards I just wonder how many wild animalistic kids these people think are really going to buy up the $75 dollar floor seats to see the Boss. I can see where paranoid might grip parents if this were a Limp Biscuit concert, but the Boss is not going to get the moshing type crowd.

RADEL: Festival seating
I think Cliff has a streak of house-mom in him. "By requesting festival seating, Bruce Springsteen is trading his fans' safety for some cheap thrills." Is he kidding? How much can one man overstate the risk? Festival seating is not a safety issue, as long as crowd control is properly in place. I had hoped that the brain-dead 19th century stubborn and ignorant mindset had vanished, but not at the Enquirer. Next they are going to tell me that if I smoke a joint I will go insane. Oh the humanity.

Zee at Roadsassy seems a bit put off by the latest Xerox allegations. I see where Zee might be skeptical about the allegations, but I would be surprised that the WSJ would offer up this story without vetting it to the conservative bloodhounds.

EEOC finds racial discrimination at Xerox's Cincinnati office
This shit is going to hit the fan from this report. I wonder how the right wing will treat this report coming from a GOP lead EEOC and the right leaning Wall Street Journal.

BBC: Mini-Me to lead 'chicken dance'
It even made the BBC. We finally get some semi-good international news coverage. This story got the crowd size correct. I don’t know what the other UK site was thinking when it wrote that story.
