The entrapment of Ms. Stewart and Mr. Bacanovic, writes Ilana Mercer, conjures the scene in the movies where the suspect bolts and the cop gives chase. "If you are innocent, why did you run?" the detective demands.
In one of its news dispatches following the trial, CNN declared that the Martha Stewart case was part of the government's "crackdown on corporate corruption." This is ridiculous, write William Anderson and Candice Jackson. Stewart was not a "corrupt" executive, nor did she break the law when she sold her shares of the temporarily doomed ImClone stock. No, Stewart apparently committed the "crime" of being wealthy and well-connected.
