Brown begins with "Page 2," his essay on the day's main event to set the tone and context. One critic compared it to NPR on TV.. Then it's "The Whip around the World," in which several CNN correspondents who are on location are cordially greeted by Brown, and then asked: "A headline, please." Brown skips the litany of all the day's news and focuses on stories that have been shrunken or overlooked completely by other newscasts. Quirky subheads pop up--"One Tough Mullah" and "Semper Fi-nd Omar" signaled stories about the Marines' search for the Taliban leader. Often there's the Mystery Guest, a segment which sometimes flops.
