Did you notice how people are worried about getting their money out even though it is federally insured? What does that say about people's belief in the government and its promises? I might be reading more into it than I should, but I kind of like the idea that people have it in the back of their minds that the FDIC is incompetent. Doug,

The same search run in Google News returns only two hits actually referring to the Friday run on Counrywide--and one of those claims it was "not quite a bank run." Don't worry, though: there's no propaganda machine in place that makes Orwell's 1984 look like the Boy Scouts.
