Call me a conspiracy theorist

By Cory Barker · Thursday, Nov. 12,2009 8:29 p.m.

Not to brag or anything, but I’d like to think I was on the ground floor for all the “crackpot” theories that have dominated headlines over the past year, and it’s all because of the long-running AM radio program “Coast To Coast AM.”

By Kristi Lafree · Thursday, Nov. 12,2009 8:25 p.m.

Universal health care is a pretty big deal. But for many of IU’s less concerned members of society, “Grey’s Anatomy” is a bigger deal. It’s an accurate representation of the typical American hospital setting, you know. I wonder if the “Grey’s” fanatics among us realize how their beloved show could change if the House’s recently passed health care bill is approved by the Senate.
