Frist can take Martha's old cell.

Anyone seen this Yahoo bullet yet?

Frist Sold Hospital Shares Before Drop

Of course it gets posted late at night. As I understand it, Yahoo's news bullets bump down like Kos diaries (like this one will).

Anyway, in light of that, I wanted to get the entry lodged on the Kos docket.

Insider trading. A tale as old as time. Granted the story is purely speculative, but I would submit stinky enough to merit an investigation.

I mean, c'mon:

Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, a potential presidential candidate in 2008, sold all his stock in his family's hospital corporation about two weeks before it issued a disappointing earnings report and the price fell nearly 15 percent

Kinda hard to polish that turd of a fact. I think Martha got dinged for something much more subjective than this.

Thoughts?
