If you are a regular listener to Rachel Maddow's Air America Radio show or a viewer of her freshly minted, staggeringly popular teevee-mahcine show on MSNBC, you know that all the juiciest news stories are leaked late in the day on Friday. Ordinarily this is done by those trying to bury the story -- but it actually has the opposite effect on the savvy news consumer, who learns to make a Friday evening ritual of scanning the wires for the best dirt.
Since the readers of this blog are all, naturally, savvy news consumers, I thought you'd appreciate the timing of this important announcement.
More on this soon, obviously.
Congratulations. I look forward to exchanging my ever inflating dollars for this good!

Awesome! Congratulations are in order!
I can see why 'they' wanted to bury this item; the mass panic at the HMV is going to be brutal!
