...What we need is a national change in consciousness," says Supreme Court advocate Aitzaz Ahsan, who led a lawyers' movement that brought about the downfall of Musharraf. "People need to be bombarded with the reality of what the Taliban represent." Ahsan wants to see videos of Taliban atrocities broadcast every night. Only then, he says, will people understand and act against extremism. "The whole nation needs to see what is happening. Not just the floggings by the Taliban but the beheadings, the digging up of the graves of our saints, the burning of our girls' schools...
...Because of Versus' limited carriage and penalty-box position on many channel lineups, what should be a transcendent series for hockey in America is barely cracking mainstream consciousness. Versus has carried all of the Penguins-Caps series except for Game 1, which NBC broadcast on May 2, and has averaged 1.04 million viewers, according to the Nielsen Co. The series is drawing a smaller audience than last year's College Baseball World Series, which ESPN broadcast for an average of 1.4 million viewers. On May 8, only 647,000 viewers tuned in to Game 4 of the series, making...

And though Sypher has told her story to some Louisville media, thus far no outlet has published or broadcast them. She first went to WDRB-TV, a Fox affiliate, which interviewed her at length and also arranged a polygraph test that proved inconclusive. The station decided not to air the interview, news director Barry Fulmer told TIME, because so many of Sypher's charges are unsubstantiated. Sypher has also spoken to Louisville's Courier-Journal newspaper...
...heavily on an independent review of the allowances system, its findings due by the end of the year, looked plodding and procedural by comparison. That's perhaps not surprising. When he did attempt a quick response last month to the first signs of a brewing expenses scandal, his proposals - broadcast in a YouTube message which rapidly became known for the Prime Minister's awkwardness rather than his ideas' merit - soon unraveled...
