Pleconaril featured in a 2+ minute story on NBC news a few minutes ago, giving Viropharma's name (but not Picovir), stressing that it attacks the virus not just the symptoms, "actually helps people with colds rather than just waiting for them to get better", expected to be a lifesaver for some, and to sell big when approved next year (with 62 million annual colds in US), etc. Very favorable story.

Most such stories on NBC are repeated in the news hours across the evening on CNBC and MSNBC, I believe at 10:00 PM and 1:00 AM (ET) on CNBC and at 9 and midnight on MSNBC.
