i wear a scarf when it's super cold

Amid the media hysteria surrounding the Martha verdict the other day, I found the real gem to come from - of all places - the E! Network:

Of course, if she'd copped to the sketchy trade when the investigation began, Stewart could have gotten off with a $200,000 fine and no jail time, federal investigators say.

Funny that CNN & Co. never seem to mention that. To me it's the saddest part. Instead of just paying her way out of the problem, she insists on her innocence and goes ahead with a full-blown trial. As a result, we get a circus and/or a witchhunt depending on your point of view and everyone ends up looking just a little silly.

Especially those dorks waving the red scarves on the courthouse steps. Those people were just idiots.
