This reporter from CNN is so energized and did a really good job with the Governor and now talking to the head of Mine Rescue. It is so refreshing to see a reporter enthusiastic along with the anchor back in CNN HQ.

Tonight CNN has been the best! I like a reporter that shows his heartfelt feelings!

They just said there are 18 helicopters standing by medivac the miners should they need it. There are 9 miners. What am I missing?

Backup helicopters in case there is a problem. Each miner gets a helicopter, and so there is absolutely no delay or problem whatsoever, there is a standby helicopter .. just in case. They're taking rescue seriously.

it's really good seeing/hearing a guy who still loves his work ...

[blam]

AMEN!!!

[justshe]

Good point......ratings DO talk.

[2Jedismom]

Two Moms...standing in agreement.

[Petronski]

Geraldo just said he was down the block eating dinner when he got the the news all 9 were alive.

Bwa ha ha ha ha: Jerry Rivers, investigative reporter, was miles away investigating a stack of mashed potatoes and gravy.

What a d!ck.

[RightWhale]

Radio news on the hour now says all nine are in surprisingly good condition. It's only been an hour since breakthrough. Amazing.

[marajade]

Really... I couldn't eat until I heard...

[justshe]

Somebody should e-mail Roger Ailes and tell him to read this thread....or assign someone to read this thread. An instant arbitron for him.

[calawah98]

Did you notice CNN reporter Jeff, asked to shake the govs hand and the last guy he talked to. He is a very compassionate reporter. Have not turned on Fox can't handle Geraldo

[don-o]

However, for FNC to maintain credibility, that HAVE to fire Geraldo after his disgraceful performance tonight.

Rush may be back on Monday. Maybe the Rushophiles might take this on as a mission.

[marajade]

I'm sure FNC knows this is where they are most vunerable... But they've known for years and still can't compete... Shame really...

[tomkat]

this cnn guy deserves a large raise

talking to salvation army volunteers now ...
(from greensburg)

the rig crew just hasta take it's time while hurrying up, ya know ?

[Quietly]

What is an arbitron when it's at home?

[pnz1]

Is Fox now showing current video from the site?

[baseballfanjm]

I'm watching and praying.

[Dales]

He is great, isn't he?

[marajade]

Yes... Unbelievable ain't it... Geraldo's been there for hours and when the news breaks, it seems he was down the street eating dinner...

[Spyder]

Nice to see a company who is more concerned about their employees rather than their balance sheet...

My husband had FOX on earlier and told me Geraldo was interviewing some woman (family member?) who was grousing about how no one seemed to "care," grousing about the owner, the folk who only care about money, etc. Geraldo tried to point out gently that they were pumping warm air down, the owner had been onsite, that there seemed to be everything possible being done.
