All The News I Need I Get From The Blogosphere

A
t this moment, 7:47 p.m. Eastern, Eugene Volokh is reporting that Sandra Day O'Connor is retiring, and the New York Times homepage doesn't mention it.

If Eugene scooped the Times, that'd be pretty cool.

UPDATE (a moment or two later): Eugene punked me. Nicely done.
