September 2007 ArchivesSomeone at the St. Louis school district has a lot more work on his plate... and he has News 4 Investigates to thank. After an N4I report on school food safety, the district implemented a new reporting policy and dedicated a staff member to closely monitor conditions in the city's 90 cafeterias. Back in February, we rep... St. Louis' hometown alt-newsweekly The Riverfront Times gave my friend Steve Templeton a pretty nice pat on the back this week. He was named "Best Weathercaster."

KATHMANDU (Reuters) - Officials at Nepal's state-run airline have sacrificed two goats to appease Akash Bhairab, the Hindu sky god, following technical problems with one of its Boeing 757 aircraft, the carrier said Tuesday. Nepal Airlines, which has two Boeing aircraft, has had to suspend some services in recent weeks due the problem. The goats were sacrificed in front of the troublesome aircraft Sunday at Nepal's only internat... It's a good sign an urban legend has spun out of control when reporters start pitching their premises as legitimate stories. To wit, this e-mail from our internal newsroom system: "as of august 30, cell phone companies were allowed to start releasing cell phone numbers to telemarketers. that means you pay if a telemarketer calls you on your cell phone. thought we might want to do a story on the number viewers can... |
