...auto industry woes are being felt here too. Over the last two decades, Mississippi, South Carolina and Tennessee lured automakers with relatively inexpensive land and lax labor laws. Now, Tennessee is fighting the possible closure of a GM plant in Spring Hill, and Toyota has already postponed the start of production of the Prius at a new plant in Mississippi...
...McAffrey (Crowe), star reporter and resident curmudgeon of the Washington Globe, as he's pursuing what seems to be the all-too-routine murder of a drug dealer. Another Globe staffer, perky bloggista Della Frye (Rachel McAdams), is digging for sexual dirt attending the relationship of a Capitol Hill researcher, dead in a train accident, to her boss, Congressman Stephen Collins (Affleck).

One of the soldiers, Private first class Matthew Fowler, 24, had ripped open his knee on a rock while sprinting from the humvee to the outpost and he needed medical attention unavailable at Restrepo. We climbed back down the hill to the road that just a few hours before had been filled with terror, to meet the humvees that would take us to the main Korengal Outpost. Fowler kept reaching for the gun he had left back at Restrepo. It was his security blanket he said, and he felt vulnerable...
