Dan Quayle finally passed his sixth grade spelling test.

Actually, it was a statement on Nicaragua (source: Vanderbilt News Archive). Strangely enough, on two of the three networks that night, the Exxon Valdez was not even the lead story (it was #1 on CBS, #5 on ABC and and #6 on NBC). The story on Nightline that night was about the Joel Steinberg trial.
