Talking World News!

Ok....so I don't know the reliabilty of ABC as a news source. But i just watched its 'World News' edition. Its stories were as follows in this order.
---------------------------------------------
'George Bush Interview and Domestic Decision over Stem Cell Research and Federal Funding'

'Israel and Suicide Bombers'

'Youth Movement and Harley Davidson in Southern USA'
---------------------------------------------
Is my cynicism about US global outlook justfied? I am gonna watch some MSNBC and CBS now to compare them.

Also, the person doing the interview with Dubya at his 'ranch' was Claire Shipman. How did this woman get a job as a high profile journalist? It was quite possibly the weakest interview I have ever seen in my life. For the limeys....this women made David Frost appear like agreesive probing journalist.

i don't think that the interveiwers on stations like that write their own set of questions anymore, they're just hired to look pretty and read off the sheet their supervisor printed out for them.

Network news is an entertainment industry. Keep that in mind.

All one needs to do to make Bush squirm is to as him what is 2+2. If you looked into his eyes you would see that there is nothing there. His eyes look like cow eyes.
