...Jordan surely meant well. Most of us would err on the side of protecting a colleague's life. And there's nothing evil about wanting to report from Iraq - especially in the '90s, when America was focusing like a laser beam on its own navel. But precisely because for many of those years there was no Fox News, no MSNBC and no al-Jazeera, CNN's reporting - and omissions - had even greater influence in shaping perceptions of Iraq, particularly in the Middle East. If it couldn't tell viewers how its newsgathering was shaped by implicit death threats...
...unit, on the heels of deep job cuts last year. A decade ago, few would have guessed Embraer would be Bombardier's main competitor in the regional-jet business.

London art critic Brian Sewell finds it "extremely difficult" to regard the Saatchi collection as art at all. But, he says, Tate Modern can't stand up to the new Saatchi sideshow: "I've always thought Saatchi was doing what Serota should be doing" - showing off works of art that...
Treble Charger were the answer to mid-’90s Canadian teen angst. Whether rocking out to power-pop anthems like “Friend of Mine” or making out to the doleful ballad “Red,” teenagers knew that Treble Charger made music that mattered. For the rest, their hopelessly obsessive but charged songs were still good...
