Why Does Suspect Keep Talking in Holloway Case?
By David Lohr - AOL News(March 3) -- Investigators aren't paying much attention to a newly released confession by Joran van der Sloot, a longtime suspect in the disappearance of Natalee Holloway. But what would motivate him to talk to the media -- and to feed the press such contradictory accounts?

Greta Van Sustren's Husband Works for Sarah Palin?
By David Knowles - Politics DailyYou may have noticed that FOX News talk show host Greta Van Susteren is awfully cozy with Alaska Governor Sarah Palin. Having conducted several exclusive interviews over the past few months, including one with Palin's daughter, Bristol, it's clear that Palin and Van Susteren have struck up a professional bond. Well, The Washington Post's Chris Cilizza did some poking around to explore the depths of their connection and found that Van Susteren's husband, Washington lawyer John Coale, turns out to be one of the governor's supporters:Coale, in an interview with the Fix, described himself simply ...
