The article presents information on political events around the world. There are scandals galore in Washington. On March 20, while much of Washington awaited the latest filing in the Paula Jones case, the Center for Responsive Politics released a report disclosing that special interests are spending the titanic amount of $l.2 billion a year to lobby Congress. The story that appeared almost word-for-word in "The New York Times," the day after the Bertelsmann/Random House merger with one slight difference. It wasn't about books but about bombs. The merger in question was that of weapons manufacturers Lockheed Martin Corp. and Northrop Grumman Corp.
