Bay Guardian Swept up in Backlash Over 'Croc Hunter' Costumenew
U.S. Halloween revelers wearing the guise of Steve Irwin have triggered a furor Down Under. The Age and The Australian, two of the country's largest dailies, cited the San Francisco Bay Guardian among the arbiters of bad taste for ranking "Croc Hunter" garb No. 1 on its list of "Great Bad Ideas for Halloween Costumes." The Bay Guardian kept company with culprits such as comedian Bill Maher, who sported a khaki shirt replete with bloody barb at a Los Angeles Halloween party.

Account of L.A. Labor Leader's Death Stirs Controversy, Charges of Cover-Upnew
An Oct. 26 L.A. Weekly article revisiting the circumstances of Los Angeles labor leader Miguel Contreras' May 2005 death continues to rumble through the megalopolis. First, the Los Angeles Times wasted no time in picking up the story. Now, an editorial in the Los Angeles Daily News implies the real misdeed was an on-the-scene cover-up by city heavyweights such as then-mayor James Hahn and now-mayor Antonio Villaraigosa. "It once again appears the well-connected are subject to VIP justice," the unsigned editorial observes, "and that's no justice at all."

Cincinnati CityBeat Greets Cheney With Peace Signnew
Hearing that the Vice President was dropping by the chamber of
commerce just across the street from their offices last week, CityBeat
warmed up the welcome wagon: "We hope to spruce up the exterior of the building so he knows just how welcome he is," News Editor Gregory Flannery wrote on the alt-weekly's blog. Although police clamped down on protestors during Cheney's Oct. 25 speech, an anti-war banner was unfurled from CityBeat windows. A photo of the sign was included in coverage of the speech in the Cincinnati Post and the Cincinnati Enquirer. Of course, it didn't take much detective work to figure out who was behind the banner: Who else would use a semi-colon in a protest sign?

Voice Scribe Pens Unflinching Account of Giuliani and 9/11
In its Sunday metro column "Reading New York," the New York Times plugs "Grand Illusion: The Untold Story of Rudy Giuliani and 9/11" (second item), co-authored by Village Voice veteran Wayne Barrett. Barrett teamed up with
CBSNews.com Producer Dan Collins to take a hard look at the New York City mayor's performance before, during and after the terrorist attack. "Given all the hagiography that has been generated by the subject," writes Sam Roberts, “'Grand Illusion' is a welcome and overdue corrective, one that amplifies the gaps in preparedness, management and communications, and challenges the post-9/11 legend."

SFR Coverage Spurs Audit of New Mexico's Prison Health Carenew
The latest in a series of investigative articles by the Santa Fe Reporter reveals that a state corrections committee has requested an independent audit of health care in New Mexico's state's prisons. The audit will focus on Wexford Health Sources, the private contractor that an Aug. 9 SFR article reported cut costs by cutting care. The paper later reported that deplorable conditions in the state's prisons had caused health care providers there to fall under the scrutiny of legislators and the American Civil Liberties Union. State Rep. Peter Wirth, D-Santa Fe, cited another SFR story in which one of Wexford's own employees decried treatment of inmates as inhumane. “That’s pretty darn scary to me,” Wirth said of the allegation.
