Early Show Apologetic For Letting News Interfere With Coverage Of 'Royal' Clinton Wedding
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

It's "royal." It's of "historic proportions." It's Chelsea Clinton's wedding, and CBS apologizes for letting actual news get in the way of its breathless coverage.

Anchoring the coverage in Rhinebeck, Early Show weekend co-host Erica Hill, after referring to the event as "America's royal wedding," threw it back to a remorseful Chris Wragge in the studio, who promised to get back to Erica in "just a couple of minutes" after a couple of news items "we have to address." When she got the ball back, Hill described the wedding as being of "historic proportions.

'Royal' Clinton Wedding

I give the marriage four years - tops. Just think about the heck that poor guy will have to go through - because of the mother-in-law.

Why is the wedding of a former president’s daughter so historic? It’s never happened before? Didn’t a president’s daughter just get married a couple of years ago? Don’t remember a tenth of this coverage for her wedding...actually not watching any of it, but the amount of coverage I’m seeing in the press on the internet is astounding. I must say, though, what a HOMELY bride! geesh!

I knew many rational, even seemingly normal females who went absolutely gaga over the Charles and Diane wedding. In a way this *is* as close as we get here in America, with the political power angle and the celebrity angle verging together.

As a musician, and one who has friends and associates in the floral and catering business, I’m happy for folks in the area this is happening who are making some good bucks. On one hand I think lavish weddings rather silly, OTOH I’ve taken home some very nice paychecks, bottles of wine and (nearly) bridesmaids (making it more than worth having to play ‘Just The Way You Are’, and/or Achy Breaky Heart!).

I find this mind-boggling…two crooked families getting such attention …I can’t believe it.

Invited are about 500 other crooks. It is one big mafia gathering.

Can someone get out there and throw a few skunk bombs into the tent?

Rots of Ruck to these spawn of communist monsters.

The networks just put the final nail in the coffin, they are done.

Oh, bullshit. She ought to be eating oats out of a burlap sack.

"But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: for men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away, for his name is Obama."

My bet is that anyone who wasn’t paid before the wedding gets stiffed.

The US media are pathetic, useful idiots.

IF communism is installed in America they’ll be the first ones in the ovens.

Cheer up, Mark. She's all yours now.

I just thought of a question:

Shouldn’t she have to pay taxes on her shower and wedding gifts? Each one of those gifts must have cost mucho dinero.

That would be hilarious.

You are so correct...I do stand corrected.

Thank you.
