FORT COLLINS, Colo. (Dec. 2) - A man accused of making unflattering online comments about his former lover and her attorney on Craigslist has been charged with two counts of criminal libel.

"It's not a charge you see a lot of," Larimer County District Attorney Larry Abrahamson said of the 1800s-era state law that can put people in jail for the content of their speech or writing.

Generally, I actually LIKE Campbell Brown (despite the fact that Campbell is an odd first name). She goes journo-typical here though and makes LEAPS of assumptions about stereotypes and putting ideas in heads. The short of what Ed Rendell said was that she has no family, which works to her advantage with being Secretary of Homeland Security because it's a job which takes over your life. This had NOTHING to do with her being a woman.

And, FYI, "The Electric Company" is coming back to TV, albeit in a somewhat mutated and PC'd form.
