This sunday's Media Nuggets

###### AP strikes again! -> With another lie.

###### GE to Sell Off NBC After Beijing Olympics? NBC Universal is seen as a "headache" to General Electric due to the disappointing performance of the NBC network. The unit is "too valuable" to offload before then, because of the advertising.

###### Vanity Fair's sanity deficit! says Maureen Dowd charmed by George W. Bush, during 2000 election.

###### You ain't seen nothin' yet! -> WH press corpse upset.

###### 9 homicides & media black-out -> because not in Iraq, but in democrat-controlled Philadelphia.

###### Media Mogul With No Conscience? -> CBS's Moonves.

###### Rest in Peace! -> Washington Post Radio. Wait, It gets better - Neal Boortz, Glenn Beck and Bill O'Reilly are replacing it.

###### NYTimes Stock lowered to Negative by Moody's Investors Service.

###### Disappointment @ Washington Post, which vastly over-hyped Abu Ghraib story and thereby cast the U.S. military in an unfair light.

###### Time to ditch AP too! -> CNN to stop using Reuters news service to cut costs and invest in its own news gathering operations.

###### Media Showers -> Why would the public lose trust? -> "The old aristocracy of programmers and editors has been overthrown by average people who now blog and download media." . Big media and big politics are all flying through an electronic meteor shower just now, and not all will survive.

###### Cheney Derangement Syndrome! WH reporter Connie Lawn is upset with Vice President Dick Cheney's motorcade, & her crusade will be to slim it down and slow it down. Too bad, since the new WH Press Secretary Dana Perino is a Wyoming-native too, besides being a Bushie.

###### MSM's Katrina malpractice! Two years later, the press is detailing everybody's mistakes except its own.

###### Patricia Heaton & Kelsey Grammer -> Set a Show Apart Borrowing the Tricks of TV News.

B u z z ..........

*** 43's life and Presidency -> Interesting snippets from the book -> "Dead Certain" (Worth Reading).

*** Conservative Humor.

*** Chef Mario Batali is out from Food Network.

*** Heather Nauert (re)joins John Gibson to co-host The Big Story from September 17th.

*** Karl Rove to take charge of the Bush library and museum.

Ap just cant stop lying
With only a 2% profit you can bet GE will unload NBC

I just caught up with the three weeks of my own thread cross posting to my blog. I've now also posted your Media Nuggets over there for posterity. I'll try to go back and grab the ones I missed.

Anita's Media Nuggets for September 9th, 2007

As always, they are great and well worth preserving.  Thanks for letting me steal them for my blog.
