isn't it sketchy for Politico to openly use the word "pay czar" without quotation marks or context for the term whatsoever?

"And the plan by pay czar Kenneth Feinberg comes in a week in which the White House has been increasingly aggressive in calling on Wall Street to stand down in its opposition to its regulatory reform proposal for the financial industry"

three paragraphs in...I mean, that's not his actual title, right?  That'd be like using the word "Governator" to describe Arnold in a serious, headline story without any introduction.

Uh I don't think this is the smartest move, although it does "feel right".

That's what Levi said to Bristol HEYOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

I'm still making up my mind about this whole White House slash, but what's really pathetic is how bad these CEOs are are publicity and public relations.  I mean, it's not exactly a secret that the public is going to be pissed off when they find out that large bonuses would be given to executives of companies crashing into the ground resulting in a taxpayer bailout.
