Good week, bad week

The World

In conjunction with our friends at The Week magazine, each Friday we discuss the winners and losers of the past seven days in a segment we call Good Week/Bad Week. This week we learn why in Madison, Wisconsin a working class hero is something to be, as a local bus driver pulled in more than $100,000. We also see how a Long Island woman topped our bad week list when she attempted to pull a fast one on the highway patrol.
