[2]This Column Mentions Lady Gaga
Gene Weingarten | Washington Post | 18 July 2010
Hackneyed subject: how search-engine optimisation and need to drive web
traffic are dumbing-down news headlines, news reporting. Even so,

$12,500 book on moon landing, moon rock included; $75,000 book on Tendulkar,
with cricketer's blood in paper
