"I am surprised that 60 Minutes will be airing the interview"

Well, we have to see what they do with it before we give them the slightest credit -- they could turn it into a total hatchet job on Freeh, as they have done to so many others. Remember that they don't do any 'live' interviews (so far as I know), it is always record, then dice and splice, so they can produce a hatchet job ala Michael Moore-on that creates an Alice-in-Wonderland inversion of reality.

Still, I would think that Freeh and/or his agents did some pretty tough negotiating (else they are fools) with 60 Minutes before granting them the first big 'exclusive' interview..... and CBS may be ready to try to start redeeming its reputation (don't know that it will ever succeed). We'll see what turns out - I may actually watch 60 Minutes for the first time in many years!

Lot of republican fools out there you'll have to let me know how it works out since I never watch those channels anymore...
