News as lies/Mensonges comme nouvelles
Major League Baseball : News:
"Is the move from Montreal official?
The move ultimately must be approved by a 75 percent vote of the Major League owners, who have owned and operated the Expos since the team was purchased from Jeffery Loria and his minority partners just before the opening of Spring Training in 2002. That approval is considered a formality. The deal is also dependent on the District's City Council passing the funding for the new ballpark, including a $13 million package to refurbish 43-year-old RFK Stadium."
Ummm... and the RICO case being completed (or the owners being paid off).
Later.

Imagine if MLB had been completely honest though. "Baseball is coming back to DC...provided we get owners, and the money for a stadium, and the land for a stadium, and money to refurbish RFK in the meantime, and we can pay Angelos enough money, and that court case gets settled, and this all happens by January when a new government in DC with at least 3 new members voted on specific ANTI-new park platforms come into office...uhh..Wooo!" It just doesn't make for as fun a press conference. Try fitting that on a banner.
