OT: Martha Stewart Convicted of All Counts

Legal analysts have been saying Martha would never be convicted.
"NEW YORK (AP) - Martha Stewart was convicted Friday of obstructing justice and lying to the government about a superbly timed stock sale, a devastating verdict that probably means prison for the woman who epitomizes meticulous homemaking and gracious living."
BK, I guess I'll ignore the tip you gave me at 6am that I should sell my Martha Stewart stock ASAP!!!

Doh! I can't believe it! I didn't see this. This is a big WOW on two fronts.
1. I can't believe they convicted her.
2. I can't believe I'm getting my regular news from PPCA.

That's great (on both counts). She misused her information for the purposes of evil

and who needs CNN when you have PPCA!

A couple of things I wonder:
What has the government done to seal the leak at the FDA that is at the center of this conflict.
Can we expect the government to go after the big fish, i.e. Enron, Worldcom as poster children, but also other Wall Street types that are raping companies for salary and bonuses (i.e.833,000 per month + benes) that can cause greater widespread damage.
