The day of the shuttle tragedy, early on, before the debris field was found, she was running the films and interviewing a NASA dude.
There was obviously burning chunks coming off of it as big as a fridge, and all she kept asking was something like "Do you think this is indicative of some type of failure?" or some such.

I thought reporters were supposed to have some semblence of deductive reasoning.

my bad. didn't mean to insinuate you "discounted" anything. As for Olberman: You may not believe this but his viewership is on the rise according to Nielsen. Of course, it's not like he has any competition besides O'Reilly. Any hard-core lib who takes the time watch Olber-scum for more than 10 minutes will warm to the stacked lib panels and snide anti-GOP remarks of the host...

I doesn't appear so does it. I wouldn't put it past NBC to create a slot for O'Brian even possibly the evening news slot, the ultimate PC move.

I have also conisdered Brain to be heir appearant. In this day of women and other special interest groups whining to the max, nothing is certain. "A win for one (of them) is a win for all", seems to be the prevailing thought for the age in which we live.
