The Inspector General Obama Fired
In mid-June there was a flurry of reports about President Obama's firing of AmeriCorps Inspector General Gerald Walpin without regard to a legally mandated waiting period after Walpin found financial shenanigans with the organization highly favored by Obama.
There hasn't been much since.
I guess the media gate-keepers figured the priority was Michael Jackson's death.
Of course, if he hadn't died, I suspect another priority would have been found.

I've been wondering the same thing!!! Also wondering why the Chip Reid/Helen Thomas flap died off... These little "fractures" are going to have to end up cracking something soon.

No one should underestimate the significance of Michael Jackson's death.
I just think that the media should have spent more effort highlighting the prophetic Thriller music video.
I, for one, am honing my zombie apocalypse survivor skills.
