corzine insists on bounty study

CongressDaily (a publication that politicians read on the Hill but which is not available to the rest of us online) has a story about Senator Corzine holding up the pro-spam "anti-spam" bill to insist that the FTC at least study the viability of bounties as part of the solution to spam. Senators have the power to "hold" a bill despite its unanimous approval. Very cool power, that.

The Technorati Breaking News is actually "news before it's reported" because one the feeding frenzy starts when people start churning through an idea, the networks take some of that activity as credible fact-checking. So a Technorati BreakingNews story becomes a nightly network news item.
