"I watched up to the point that they fully severed his head (after about 5 attempts)."

That's in stark difference to the description on ABC Radio News that the beheading was "quick".

I've noticed an interesting trend over the last 6 months. Whenever there is a "major" story (Prison Abuse, the murrder today AWOL Gate, et. al) CBS radio news and ABC radio news have Rather and Jennings anchoring the newscast. They do the top story, go to commercial then hand it off to the "normal" newsreader. Happened again today with Jennings doing the story on the neheading then after the first commercial giving the rest of the newscast to the normal anchor.

Yes, 30 seconds out of a 5:37 video clip. So quick that the full execution footage could be aired on tv as a public information ad.
