The three network anchors will travel to Europe and the Middle East next week for Barack Obama's trip, adding their high-wattage spotlight to what is already shaping up as a major media extravaganza.
Lured by an offer of interviews with the Democratic presidential candidate, Brian Williams, Charlie Gibson and Katie Couric will make the overseas trek, meaning that the NBC, ABC and CBS evening newscasts will originate from stops along the route and undoubtedly give it big play.

Wow an admission by Obama and the Major Networks that the surge worked and America is winning the terrorist war in Iraq.
There is no way that these 3 talking faces from the networks would be anywhere near Iraq if it was not relatively safe.
For that matter neither would Obama.......
I’ve been watching politics for a long time — since before Nixon’s election.
As fawning as the media’s reporting on Dukakis, Gore and Kerry was, it is nothing compared to their grovelling for Obama.
This is worship.
Well, we, at least, have a good idea where Katy will be.
Doing a colonoscopy?
You know, if Barack isn’t careful, this whole trip could backfire...thousands of adoring Arabs, Israelis protesting in the streets, a gaff here, a gaff there...Kati acting stupid. Before you know it, it’s like a political “Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure”!
From the front?
Fred Grandy on WMAL this a.m. said something to the effect of “They are nolonger the ‘big three’ - they’re a backup group. It’s Barack Obama and Dawn.”
A bald-faced set of campaign commercials for Obama thinly disguised as “news.” McCain should demand the FEC make the networks give him equal time.
One by one, “reporter” by “reporter”, corp by corp, their reputations and livelihoods ruined, forever.
Their families and businesses destroyed, just as they have done to their enemies (and our friends), with impunity, for decade upon decade.
It is past time for payback, for retribution.
Hmmm, and why did they not do this when McCain went abroad? They are all biased in favor of Democrats. So McCain has to not only fight Obama, but each of the msm media shows.
She will have her head so far up his butt, she might as well do something useful while in there. Chrissy Matthews seems to be the one digging for the frontal ‘assault’ as the quiver runs up his leg.
I can't think of a better description.
Hillarious ..... and accurate.

“So McCain has to not only fight Obama, but each of the msm media shows.”
Yep....and this is how it’s gonna be, right up to election day. They treat Obama, now, as if he is President-Elect Obama. McCain is just an annoying insect to them.

Members of the Press? Bah!
They’re going as Obama Press Secretaries.
Good one.
