"We lost it!"The only true words to come out of CBS news studios in a while.

Wish it would have happened on Fox here in reverse. Then I wouldn't have had to watch the Lions.

Another incedent with CBS I found humerous this AM.
It was early and Blather was just coming on.
He was asking Dicky G a question, but Dick was responding to Tim Russert. CBS cut him off just after Dick said "now Tim"..

That was Joe Biden. From our live commentary:
2003-12-14 09:34:30 ET
Another live television booboo.
CBS accidentally tried to interview Senate Democrat Joe Biden while he was being interviewed by NBC's Tim Russert. Dan asked him a question, but Biden didn't respond, Rather asked again, "Can you hear me, Senator?" Was waived off irritatedly. Asked again. Biden responded "Well Tim..." CBS cut transmission.

Rather freaked out and
pulled the plug.
He couldn't risk sending
out Positive Press for Bush.
His Queen might get angry....
Heil Hillary.

Drudge was late, but when he got up and running on Saddam's capture, he had a first rate headline, "Ace In A Hole", and links to the best articles.
FOXNews got the "breaking news" info long after MSNBC, and shortly after CNN, but they've spent the rest of the day with first rate shows, interviews, background, and analyses.
NBC had on a slew of democrats, and former Clinton officials.
Where were the Republicans today? Frist was on CNN earlier, but when FOXNews shows statements from important people, they show what Daschle said, nothing from Frist.
CBS was embarrassing, irrelevant, out of touch, and Dan Rather was pathetic!! I don't think he even reads the wire services to keep up with the news. He's a tired old hasbeen, but evidently just can't give it up. CBS should fire the old coot....but they won't, so let em go down in flames.

I wish President Bush would've waited until the football games started. Wouldn't it have been cool to see the action stopped after a few minutes play and then hear the stadium announcer say, "Ladies and Gentlemen, please direct your attention to the Jumbotron at the north end of the stadium for a message from President Bush."

Dan would have been pleased to personally pick the lice from Saddam's scummy head.
