2007 - What do you think was newsworthy?
 
Alright 07 is almost over...but this has been one doozy of a year.

In no particular order what do you think was at most 5 of the biggest, craziest, wackiest and/or most seriously heart wrenching news items this year?

Whose passing was a heartbreaking suprise?

What was big in sports news?

What movie was integral to 2007?

Biggest TV event on and off camera?

And so on ....


And feel free to discuss too:

1. Sean Taylor shooting

2. The VT Gunman

3. The Jena 6 trial and all the noose incidents afterwards

4. Iran's president visiting the US

5. The worsening news from Darfur

I think Hillary Clinton being a serious contender for president is one of the biggest stories.

Just yesterday
 
May not be the story of the year nationwide, but has stunned the area.
Fresno State ordered to pay femaile former basketball coach $19.1 million.
YES!
Her attorney had offered to settle for $950,000.
This was the third major lawsuit lost or settled by the school regarding female coaches or staff employees.
Maybe changes will be made so what goes on will end. That would make me a happy Bulldog.
The governor's office locally is getting calls for university president to step down. And a Congressman has also asked him to resign.

Nationally, VT shootings, and bridge collapse. Lighter Note: U of Hawaii football team being No. 10 and Colt being nominated for Heinsman (sp?)/
