- Was the decision to sell the stock in Time Warner owned by
- Philadelphia's municipal pension fund a good one? (They voted
- yesterday to sell $1.6M in Time Warner stock because of Ice-T's album
- "Body Count", which has the song "Cop Killer" on it.) What sort of
- precedent does it set? I'm afraid that other similar groups will
- start to use the "objectionable" watermark as their metric for whom
- they should and should not fund. Was it wise?
