Peacock paranoid pissed
I was going to post this in "Breaking News" but didn't want to break any of the numerous rules regarding, uh, posting in Breaking News, so
the gist of this is:

Tombo is pissed about corporate state media nutwork anchors not being able to get extra air time in the debates.


Peacock guy
is ruffled


NBC News' 63-year-old alpha male - already annoyed that nobody from NBC was picked last Friday to moderate this fall's presidential and vice presidential debates - is mad as hell and he's not going to take it anymore.

He blew a gasket this week after debate honcho Janet Brown told The New York Times that star network anchormen are unsuitable.

"For fear that they would overshadow the events," The Times explained.

Hey, Tom, chill out, retire, and give talks to the declining members of the "greatest generation".
