Frist and his staff are feeling the heat...

After repeated questions regarding how much Senator Bill Frist knew about his "blind"trust, Chief of Staff Eric Ueland went off on AP reporter Jonathan Katz yesterday, according to this story in THE HILL newspaper.

It appears that the state's senior Senator sold his HCA stock (a company founded by his family) just before a precipitous decline in the stock price. Katz had been following the story closely, apparently more closely than Frist and his office liked.

Josh Marshall also comments on the story here.
