- Headline: Law Firms Shape D.C. Real Estate Landscape. Impact: If only Arnold & Porter knew that their new lease would lead to an explosion of law firms, resulting in a future where every coffee shop becomes a makeshift courtroom. The next generation might just order their lattes with a side of legal counsel.. Fact: Did you know that more lawyers are now practicing in D.C. than there are actual residents? It’s like a legal version of 'The Hunger Games'—may the best brief win!.
- Headline: Chilling Tale of Family and Crime. Impact: This chilling tale set off a chain reaction of 'true crime' media that continues to this day. Little did they know that one family's tragedy would eventually lead to an entire generation binge-watching crime documentaries instead of, you know, doing anything productive.. Fact: Did you know that Mississippi is actually known as the 'Hospitality State'? It seems hospitality doesn't extend to not killing families, though..
- Headline: Germany's Major Companies to Privatize. Impact: The privatization of Lufthansa and Telekom triggered a butterfly effect where every airline and telecom company felt the need to 'go private' as well. Now we have airlines whose only flight plan is to charge you for breathing and telecom companies that can't find your call even when it’s the only one they have to answer.. Fact: Did you know that Deutsche Lufthansa A.G. was once the largest airline in Europe? Yeah, now it's just the largest source of 'please hold' messages..
