I'm flabbergasted
I'm watching CNN tonight which I usually do not. Cooper Anderson was awesome. I'm usually appalled by him, but tonight he became my favorite reporter.

Then came the king...Paul Krugman. I've never seen a newcast with him, I've only read his stuff. He decimated the prettyboy Dwyer (R). Please give him more air time.

So I love Anderson for finally being a news Anchor but Krugman just rules.

2. There was an article in the LA Times last week,
that CNN is trying to go back to reporting hard news with real reporters rather than "personalities". Maybe it's starting to show. It still doesn't explain how the conflict of interests in the corporate ownership mergers and biases are going to be resolved.

3. Glad to see Krugman getting more exposure
Alas, since I don't have cable, I'm stuck watching PBS Newshour, which is not a terribly good show these days.

:-(

Indeed, Krugman rules!

:hi:

4. Saw Krugman kick David Drier's butt
Drier could not refute a single one of Krugman's points, all backed with hard numbers. Now CNN is doing a story on Adult Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD). Had a doctor on that said adult ADD is only serious if it gets to the point where it affects your ability to do your job well. Yup, that about nails the diagnosis for Bush!

6. Do you mean David Dreier?
BFEE loyalist congressman? They always use him when they're in trouble, as if his smarminess makes thuggery more palatable.
