Thursday's story ideas

Vetting a charity. In light of the Mike Ditka charity fiasco, show how you can find out which ones are legit... or how much of their dollar doesn't go to "operating expenses."

Republicans are about to float a bill in which employers can require new employees to speak English.

Airline passengers bill of rights. Explain what it is and what could happen if it becomes law.

Meanwhile, Delta is rolling out videos on proper etiquette for passengers. Free b-roll! (Hopefully it will instruct the screaming baby that always sits next to me how to keep quiet.)

Obese children who watch too much TV can develop high blood pressure. (The solution is pretty obvious.)

Baseball's steroid report will name names today.

Holiday market basket. Time to go shopping for turkey, ham, egg nog....

And finally, Wal-Mart pulls suggestive girls' underwear from store shelves. (I'm not making this up.) The panties read "Who needs credit cards..." on the front, and "When you have Santa" on the back.
