...that league revenues would be "under pressure." He asked them to control costs and seek new revenue streams. This season, baseball attendance fell about 1%, the first drop in four years, and that demand is reflected in the market for playoff tickets. Last year, a ticket for a Boston Red Sox American League Championship Series game sold for an average of $448 on StubHub.com, the leading secondary-market ticket site. This year, that average price dipped like the Dow: it was $244, a decline of about 50%. In the Tampa area, World Series tickets are going for under...

But this brand of attack is not new, as the article implies. I think of the 1920s and the red scare and the extreme nationalism that led to immigrant quotas. Don't we all look back at that time and shudder at how we treated those who came from another place? Our incredible ingenuity, our innovation, our ideas, our universities - all these are the product of our ability to attract...
