Raiding the Family Jewels

It's not like I need to chime on the Bernie Madoff scandall: everyone else has already, and I consider myself lucky that I'm poor enough to not have been hurt by this Ponzi scheme, but I am strangely fascinated with the media coverage of it all.

My day job requires me to read the Wall Street Journal everyday to follow the markets, particularly the housing markets, and this has been big news for Murdoch & Co, for obvious reasons, but I'm most amused by a recent headline from Crain's New York:

Prosecutor: Madoff raided family jewels

Ain't that the truth?
