Yeah, no doubt the media will be all over it and pan it to the ninth degree. Although I don't expect anything usefull to come out of it. It will be carefully worded, confusing, and essentially accomplish nothing. Than it will be does the media have the stones to try and organize a Baseball boycott...or will they fear that if they pull a stunt like that...they'll put themselves out of jobs?

The other thing is will it name players...or will it discuss the extent to which they were involved? I heard their key witness was a New York Mets club house attendent.

MLB's players union is really mum on the issue too. So I suspect that there is a lot of guilt to some pretty high profile guys and hence why they have absolutely no willingness to co-operate. They've bent owners over the table forever, maybe the media can target the union as being the problem and make them crack?
