Has anyone stopped to read the headlines on the newspaper?

I mean the one Garibaldi is holding in B5S1D2Ep4 ("And the Sky Full of Stars") (about 1/3rd of the way through it).

It fills in when a number of things they mention in 2nd season happened, such as Sheriden mentioning the Psicorp scandal dealing with VP Clark and such.

    Yup. It's one of those things that really jumps out at you when you know what's coming down the road.

    Didn't that episode also have a headline that said something like "Is there something living in hyperspace?"?
