...like to see too much growth because we have small country roads that can't accommodate cars," Zaitlin says. The general store, which also sells prescription drugs and camera equipment, is the only place where Harvard residents meet regularly. "I'm just working here because it's a good way to meet people and hear town gossip," Zaitiln says...
...supermarket tabloids don't usually pay much attention to politics--they have their hands full chronicling Sharon Stone's love life and following Madonna around with a camera--but when they do, they make it count. In 1987 the National Enquirer printed a photo of Donna Rice sitting on Gary Hart's lap, creating the most infamous visual epitaph for his crashed political career. Four years ago, the Star ran a story on Gennifer Flowers' alleged affair with Bill Clinton, throwing a major scare into his campaign just before the New Hampshire primary. And last week it was the Star...
...time, Coca-Cola has decided to end its five-year sponsorship of the Lakers, since in the Atlanta firm's view, O'Neal represents the fox in the Coke chicken coop. "There was nothing to prevent Shaq from pulling out a Pepsi in the locker room during an on-camera interview," said a Coca-Cola spokesman.

For instance, rules awarding extra delegates to states with Republican governors end up favoring places like New Hampshire, where minorities tend to be a smaller share of the population. Some delegates...
...your dreams. NBC's coverage of the Olympics may have been overly manicured for TV, but it was a riot of spontaneity compared with the Republican Convention. In an effort to put their best face on-camera, the G.O.P. planners jammed all their high-profile speakers into one hour each evening (catering to the networks, which had scheduled just one hour of coverage on most nights). And the networks, reluctant to air a four-night campaign commercial, tried to show as little of the official proceedings as possible. Yet finding any real news to cover--or, indeed, anything unplanned--proved...
