Quote of the Week
GENE ROBERTS "I can't make a sweeping claim on every single newspaper, but while we read about the healthcare crisis, we don't get the vivid mental pictures of crowded emergency rooms - all sort of vivid things which might cause society to act."

-the former Inquirer editor and coauthor of The Race Beat: The Press, the Civil Rights Struggle, and the Awakening of a Nation, in the Boston Phoenix, Feb. 21

MOVIE REVIEW OF THE WEEK BY SEAN BURNS Days of Zodiac A Directed by David Fincher. Starring Mark Ruffalo, Robert Downey Jr. and Jake Gyllenhaal. "I guess Zodiac is sort of similar to Se7en, in that the serial killer is always one step ahead of the cops-only this time instead of your wife's head winding up in a box, she's taken the kids away and doesn't want to talk to you anymore because you've gotten too creepy and obsessive .. which is kind of a little bit scarier, no?"
