Talk Miramax had First Amendment lawyer Floyd Abrams warn Drudge that he, not Miramax, would bear responsibility for airing the manuscript. But on Friday an embarrassed Brown issued a terse press release canceling the book. Connolly, a true believer in the right wing-conspiracy theory of Clinton's impeachment, called Brown "a coward" for abandoning it. Brown insisted it would have been axed anyway.

Possibly this rally will persist and break the bear-market pattern. But it hasn't yet. Don't rush to redeploy all your...
...much for a warm-weather boost. More critically, the sharp rise in stocks looks suspiciously like a bear-trap rally, the kind that draws money from the sidelines as investors worry lest they miss out on a new bull market. Alas, these bounces, called suckers' rallies, prove short-lived and end in despair. Money drawn in near the top vanishes amid new lows on the major averages...
