Will The Media Report The Woodward Story?

[FlashHarry]

One would thing they would almost have to, to remain competitive with CBS. Of course, Fox won't, but that's a given.

Secondary question (2 parts) is the Saudi oil scheme the "October surprise?" And, is it effectively quashed now the cat's out of the bag?

[reprehensor]

1. FOX won't, everybody else will.

No, that wasn't the 'October' suprise, that will be a fake WMD discovery, like so.

Or Osama's corpse.

[FlashHarry]

2. What about Reagan's corpse?

That was one that came to me recently. What if Ronnie's already in the freezer, next to Ted Williams and Walt Disney, only to be thawed out in October?

12. I don't think Nancy would do anything to help the Bushes

23. Reminds me of a skit on In Living Colour

A character playing President Jesse Jackson keeps insisting in a speech that he kept his promise to America "to keep hope alive." Then you hear "Thanks For The Memories," and a life-supported Bob Hope is wheeled out!

5. He has tapes that CBS listened to

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/04/15/60minutes/main612067.shtml

according to the news page Woodward has tapes with quotes from who he interviewed....

6. Woodward is just getting started

60 Minutes was just his first shot. Parts of his book get serialized in the Washington Post this week. Woodward will be doing the chat-show circuit and the White House attack dogs (like Condi) will be out saying all sorts of insane things. Clarke, John Dean, and others will be back in the public eye pointing out corroborating evidence. Kerry has gone on Iraq attack and will likely pursue. Congressional and Senatorial Bush doubters from both parties will continue to pile on.

7. Can Bush be impeached for using $700 million for

Can Bush be impeached for using $700 million for Afghanistan for Iraq?

[FlashHarry]

8. Well, he did contravene the Constitution.

If that's not a "high crime," let alone a misdemeanor, I don't know what is.

9. Can't Wait to Listen to Air America Tomorrow

Should be fantastic! I'm so happy I have Al Franken to give me his take on this.

[FlashHarry]

10. I'll bet he's salivating as we speak.

[Mel]

14. I hear you

I'm so angry I could go for some some Mike Malloy! :) I love his rant 'have I mentioned today how much I hate these people'
I love Air America Radio but I need myself a fix of Mike!

11. Bush is a Crook.

Many of us have known that for a long time, but the $700 million used for a purpose Congress didn't intend may be the clearest example yet.

[markomalley]

13. Yes--but they will screw it up

Part One: of course they will. The real question is: will they conveniently forget about it?

Part Deux: See my answer for part one.

15. kick

16. Hmm. I don't see much in today's Internet headlines.

I wonder if Karl's pulling in some favors this morning.

[Junkdrawer]

17. The Post-Gazette (Pgh) Led with Condi's denial - on page 3....

And they didn't cover the explosive charges... :mad:

[Junkdrawer]

18. NPR doesn't have a peep...

19. Dead silence

Watched BBC this morning--nothing.
NPR had never heard of the story.
Local ABC affiliate still thinks we're rebuilding Iraq.

[Renew Deal]

20. I saw it on CBS, ABC and NBC already

I am sure it will spread.

[DeepModem Mom]

21. Thanks, all -- please keep reporting --

[Shopaholic]

22. All over morning TV, nothing in the papers

Not a word about the Woodward book or its contents made its way into either of the two local newspapers I subscribe to (in South Carolina-Bush "territory"), but it was all over the network morning news shows. I pray that this story has legs. . . .

[FlashHarry]

24. This could be a slow build. We'll see.
