No west coast version? Do they not run it AFTER the football game? That is what they sometimes do here locally, when things preempt the national news.

All is not lost, however. I will bet cash money that MRC got a tape of it. We need to check tomorrow.

What This Means

Besides this very foolish live sample, Jennings is also appearing in Town Hall meetings, where he is being attacked.

Now, ABC is owned by Disney, whose profits dropped by 82% last quarter. Eisner, the former wunderkind of the entertainment industry (and ego extraordinaire) does NOT like hearing that ABC News is losing viewers! He wants to keep his job!

So Jennings, like Bill Mahr, is on the "get your numbers up or else" tour. This is a good thing.

It lets us know that the ABC people are feeling the heat, AND as a bonus, it is personally humiliating to Peter Jennings.

Life is good.
