that was just the facts as they came in, no hysteria, no loaded language. They remind me more and more what network news used to be like before they were all bought out by megacorporations and forced to be infotainment and commentary, not news. I doubt they've improved since I turned them off in 2004.

It doesn't surprise me that they're clinging to this story with a death grip, anything to drum up support for Republican warmongers.

At least if you shut the sound off, the scenery behind the yammering bobbleheads might be interesting.
