FEET OF CLAY? The government sued Standard & Poor's rating agency, accusing it of misleading investors by giving high marks to risky subprime mortgage investments.
HEAT'S ON: The government has been announcing lawsuits and settlements with a number of firms over alleged wrongdoing that helped ignite the financial crisis. This is the first major action against a credit rating agency.
