CBS announced on Wednesday that the network will broadcast a special hour-long look at Safer’s broadcasting career on Sunday night. …

Glad you corrected post #7. I really haven’t watched watch 60 minutes for years, and that thought never came up. Sounds like he has a longtime marriage.

‘Sunday ‘Morning’ used to ne the same for me. Sometimes good stuff. I don’t watch network TV.....or any TV much at all, now. And don’t miss it.

I tape a lot of things and watch when I can. It gives me options and i don’t automatically judge a program with 50 years of three articles a week by what some of the stories say.

Best wishes

He’s an old leftist media warhorse/liar in the employ of the masters of the New World Order.

According to Wikipedia he is not said to be a homosexual (he is married with a daughter) but is a Canadian.

I tape Morning Joe and the Sunday News shows and decide what I may want to watch. Morning Joe is good for about the first 30 minutes and that is all. One thing about that show is that I wish they would get rid of some the idiots they have on a regular basis, like Eugene Robinson and Nicole Wallace, what complete biased idiots. Joe, Mika and Barnicle I can tolerate.

I haven’t watched that. I watch OR and I can speed through it in about 10-15 minutes. It’s fairly redundant and he’s often nopt willing to issue a death blow when he has some open on the ropes like Clinton. I think in the back of his mind, he wants everyone to kiss the ring and come in for an interview. I remember how he sucked up to Ob to get that interview.

Tonight he said for the 50th time, we have proven Obama’s birth certificate is real.
