Here?s an addition to the ?unfortunate headlines? file, from the Shelby Star:

Protestors: CIA ran N.C.

The agitators discussed in the story were actually talking about the alleged use of a Johnston County airport for CIA planes transporting terror suspects, but the headline is an arresting one. How long have House Speaker Jim Black and Senate leader Marc Basnight been on the CIA payroll? Was their cover illegally blown, and if so by whom? Meredith Norris? Kevin Geddings? Karl Rove?

The truth is out there. Waaay out there.
