Breaking News: Media Machine

If you want to have your scandal swept under the carpet, be sure the news breaks in a big news week. This has been one of those!

STOP THE PRESSES: Steve Jobs steps down as Apple's CEO!
Financial markets affected all over the world as suppliers, consumers, competitors and stockholders all wonder if it's about the man or the Mac.
