3. A couple of pictures

"Why should we hear about body bags and deaths and how many, what day it's going to happen, and how many this or what do you suppose? Oh, I mean, it's, not relevant. So why should I waste my beautiful mind on something like that?"

5. NBC and CBS both covered it tonight, however . . .

. . . the story they are tip toeing around is the Korean explosion story. CBS spent less than 15 seconds implying that a few hundred may have been killed and then moved on to the next story. No pictures. Nothing. NBC did a little better but I still felt that they were trying to diminish the story.

The coffin story was top story on both channels. I don't know about ABC.
