Ummm, I do not believe I said I thought most Americans viewed 60 Minutes that way. I was giving my view of the show. Guess I have to preface everything I say on this board with:

"I believe that......".

I absolutely disagree with that statement, as I was in a discussion about this earlier this week. 60 mins in not viewed as "mainstream"......it is viewed as trash, and people who regularly watch it were ridiculed! (And these remarks were not from rabid Republicans, they were from people who have voted for both parties.) The only true believers in "60 mins" watch because it echoes back their own leftists beliefs.

But if the republic is in such a shape that interviews on CBS can bring us down than we are not going to survive anyway.

Bush needs to find a way to openly take the media bias directly to the people - even make it an issue. He keeps getting handed perfect opportunities.
