Editor fired over article about sex at AMA journal
The Journal of the American Medical Association fired editor George D. Lundberg for interjecting a 1991 college survey piece on what constitutes sex into the Clinton impeachment debate. AMA official Ratcliffe Anderson said the move was due to sensationalism and rushed publication, not science or medicine.

Court clears Hinckley's way to day trips from hospital
A 2-1 DC Circuit panel ruled that decisions on Hinckley’s supervised day trips from St Elizabeths Hospital lie with his doctors rather than the court. The decision supports gradual community visits as part of his treatment for potential eventual release, while prosecutors caution about ongoing dangers. The ruling lets Hinckley, escorted by hospital staff, pursue short visits with family in the future.
