HUH? It was front page of the Boston Herald, front page of the NY 
Post, front page of every rightie newspaper in the country, it 
seems.  But the illegal donation of (gasp) $265 dollars isn't exactly 
earth-shattering news, plus she got into the Housing Project at a 
time when she was still legal-- her request for asylum was still 
pending.  This wasn't suppressed at all.  In fact, it got quite a bit 
of attention-- AP, USA Today, etc.
