State of Missouri does its best impersonation of the deranged mayor from Jaws.



Missouri DNR officials for 4 weeks put the kibosh on releasing a report showing unsafe E. coli levels in the Lake of the Ozarks around Memorial Day. They did so "because they were concerned about the impact it would have on tourism and the public." As for the impact on tourists' better health and welfare? Not so important, apparently.
