A tongue in cheek column questions whether the Lone Ranger yelled Hi Yo Silver or Hi Ho Silver. It riffs on reader letters, TV lore, and pop culture trivia from Brace Beemer to Kato Kaelin, ending with a call for a federal look at the issue.
Alison Green argues that consumer demand shapes corporate behavior on animals and the environment. Companies like Gap, Sears, United Airlines, Delta, Colgate-Palmolive, Revlon, Gillette, and McDonald’s have adopted humane practices after PETA campaigns and investor screening rises. The piece praises this shift as a new era of corporate responsibility driven by consumer power.
An editorial barrage argues Texas Death Row cases expose flawed justice. It cites Henry Lee Lucas, Ricky McGinn, and Anthony Graves, detailing DNA scrutiny, recanted confessions, and delays. The piece notes a 30 day stay for DNA tests, and questions access to courts while condemning Carter and Graves’ exoneration attempts amid federal reviews.
The piece traces a 1969 battle over a Safeguard defense system and compares it to a renewed push under George W. Bush, with critics fearing destabilization, questions about feasibility, and a vote narrowly decided by a vice president. The analysis links Nixon era politics to the 2000 election context.
