The Buck Stops Where?

Media

Rupert Murdoch just told Parliament that he is not ultimately responsible for “this fiasco” and instead projected blame to the people he “trusted and the people they trusted”.

Interesting Timing

Misc

The news that a judge has allowed the case of Jamie Leigh Jones against Halliburton/KBR to move forward has come at a very interesting time.
