As If On Cue, the CL Carries Water for Speekah Billy McCoy
The most unpardonable journalistic sin is plagarism. The second is burying the lead. Today, the CL Editorial Board may have to beg for forgiveness in the second department.

SUNHERALD – Dickie Scruggs’ $50 million man
Dickie Scruggs’ $50 million man Blake will earn $50 million, court records show, for clipping newspaper articles and alerting Scruggs to maneuvering in political “cloakrooms,” as Scruggs put it, from Mississippi to Washington.

FOLO – NMC Checks Out Balducci’s Chops
NMC Checks Out Balducci’s Chops Tim Balducci apparently had a different theory. The first three are all criminal cases in which the circuit judge was Henry Lackey — and Tim lost! And lost on appeal!

CL – Mike Moore: Senate decision crushing for Dems
Moore: Senate decision crushing for Dems It was considered a near certainty that Moore would run. Since he chose to pursue private legal practice in 2004, it was common political wisdom that he was itching to be a senator, only biding his time until either Lott, 66, or Sen.
