Despite intense criticism of the charges by Pantano's supporters, the case has steadily worked its way up the chain of command--suggesting either its merit or the unwillingness of Marine commanders to halt such a sensitive inquiry. "It is sad but true that the military leadership is likely to let a case go to trial even if the facts do not merit it because they want to cover their asses," says Gittins. But the Marine Corps stands by its decision to prosecute while, as in most cases in the military-justice system, it won't comment on the charges...
...typical of Henry Grunwald's unyielding honesty and his precise mind that he disapproved of using the words "passed away" to refer to someone who has died. So I will honor him in reporting what is sad news in the unequivocal language he would have insisted upon. Henry Anatole Grunwald, one of the most distinguished managing editors in TIME's history and for decades a pre-eminent figure in American journalism, died last week. He was 82 and in his later years had faced a number of difficulties, which, being Henry, he treated as opportunities. Last year he suffered...
LESS FUNNY, MORE SAD Lynn Cheney, Joe Lieberman, and Tipper Gore, you triumvirate of wisdom, you: the moment of vindication is now.

"I think we've come a long way, but we still have a long way to go." --By Michael D. Lemonick. Reported by David Bjerklie/New York...
...think I'm more apt to choose a role that isn't me. If you think back on Dirty Harry, for instance, people saw him as just a rogue cop. But he's a rogue cop who's just lost his wife. He's sort of a sad guy, and he's equally saddened and angered by the bureaucratic nightmare he's dwelling in while trying to apprehend a sadistic, psychopathic serial killer. If you showed him as a happy-go-lucky guy with no problems at all, you'd have no emotional excitement in the picture...
