So 150 Million pieces of toy jewelry from India have been recalled because of toxic levels of lead. Where is this story in the Los Angeles Times? Page two of the Business section.

The front page headline on the California section is "NAACP Says Riordan Should Quit." He's Education Secretary in our state. And he made a bad joke (and not an ethnic one) that insulted a little girl.

Doesn't the NAACP have better things to do?

The very front page top headline is about the convictions in the Adelphia case. Yawn. The rich plunder the economy for decades, two go to jail.

Shouldn't the jewelry recall story have been on the front page instead? Lead exposure causes children to lose IQ points. The editors at the LAT are clearly short on IQ points already.
