Baltimore Boondoggles -- Dubious Distinctions -- A Spectacle To The World

In this new ongoing series, we will highlight some of the more embarrassing news stories coming out of Baltimore. The kinda stories that quickly become the only perception many in the rest of the country have of Baltimore.

What a way to be known;

Last count, there were nearly 300 articles nationwide on Mayor Sheila Dixon's indictment. And we thought this was "just Baltimore hon"

Then there's Michael Phelps deal. That kept coming back to Baltimore too.

The girl who beat her school teacher, then beat the charges.

And in a bit lesser known story that didn't grow quite the legs it should, we learned that a Baltimore snitch of all people (I know, I know, couldn't resist) is largely responsible for getting the whole baseball steroid controversy going (see earlier blog entry)

Baltimore oh Baltimore...
