9. Hearing that spin everywhere. Has to be a WH talking point. Pathetic press
can't even write their own news anymore. Need talking points to tell them how to present stories.

6. Tell me it isn't my imagination....
Today, with the coverage of the inauguration, CBS has made a marked, sudden jerk to the right. None of the MSM are really down the middle, but up until today I found CBS to be slightly less "bought" than the others.

Oddly, ABC's coverage didn't reek.

7. "The protestors in their cage"
During the procession, someone, I think it was Jennings, actually used the word "cage." He said something like: "There's the protestors in their cage...." It was hard to be sure, but it sounded like even he was disgusted by the barricade.

8. ABC said it looked like a Banana Republic and maybe we shouldn't
have these parades anymore because it looks like the terrorists won by getting us to alter how we do things to such an extreme degree.

George Will and a historian (Bechloss (sp?) wrote the Clinton biography).

11. Probably John Roberts.
He seems to love Bush for some reason.

12. I Hope He Isn't Rather's Replacement
I want someone with balls, like Rather. Damn, I just wish Dan would change his mind.
