I'm a lifelong baseball fan, and I don't care if Roger Clemens took steroids, or if he is lying or if McNamee is lying.  News is stuff that's important. If it's national news, it's stuff that is important to everyone in the nation. Whether Clemens took steroids or not is a proper topic for a 60 Minutes, Fresh Air or Nightline segment. To take a whole day across all the cable channels the day after three pivotal primaries is very wrong. (And what if they do it again tomorrow? Oy.) So it's ridiculous that all the cable news channels are broadcasting the full testimony of Roger Clemens and his accuser. Hours of repetitive questions and the same answers, over and over, while there is news happening in the world. I know because I'm subscribed to the MSNBC and AP feeds on Twitter. I have a Google Alert that shows me results of all the campaign conference calls. (There have been a couple this morning, from Obama and McCain, I'd love to get MP3s, and still looking for a feed.) It's time for some serious routing-around, or for the cable news programmers to get back on the job.  Cross-posted at Huffington.

Take a deep breath. There's lots to digest. The Red Sox have talked to the Arizona Diamondbacks about trading for Randy Johnson, though a team source said the five-time Cy Young Award winner is &quot;not necessarily our top priority.&quot;

After an offseason highlighted by Barbara Walters holding up Curt Schilling as a profile in courage and ending with Mike Wallace grilling Jose Canseco about his all-star list of alleged steroid abusers, baseball returns to the field this week. The view has been only partially obscured by the mushroom cloud of suspicion from leaked grand jury testimony in the BALCO ...
