Death vs. pollution
Which is the bigger story from the Supreme Court yesterday, the death penalty ruling or the Exxon Valdez ruling? The N&O and us went with the death penalty. The Charlotte O and Winston-Salem went with Exxon. (Correct answer below.)




The New York Times went with both, but then it's a newspaper that throws design to the wind and starts a dozen stories on its front page. Unfair comparison.

The answer? None of the above. The winner? The New York Post, which went with titillating over important, always a good gambit.
