We have the most coverage in the world, Bob, not the best.
Heck, only O'Reilly does any kind of investigative reporting. Hannity and Colmes, Inside Edition, come on!

Chris Matthews has a great style, but half the time he doesn't even asks the questions that where answered in the fluff piece introducing a guest.

I can tell you from here, that I know more about what's going on is Pakestan than most of the reporters we send there.

How many high tech sat phones do I have to hear from Bagram where the reporter is clueless about the situation, any of it. Reports on the front are none existant. The Taliban's reporters do a much better job. They provide more info than those great reporters your supporting, and they (Al-Jeezera) are the enemy.

Sorry, but I'd have to know how to spell and construct good sentences in English to be a reporter. That's a skill I clearly don't have.

Bill

Interest In War News Waning Viewership down from Sept. peak

By RICHARD HUFF
Daily News TV Editor

iewer interest in wall-to-wall coverage of the war against terrorism appears to be fading.

Since the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks on New York and Washington, viewership for the three major all-news channels — CNN, the Fox News Channel and MSNBC — has fallen steadily, according to Nielsen Media Research.

By any measure, though, the networks are doing much better this October than they did last, with each up by double-digit percentages, in some cases triple-digit percentages.
