1. Maybe it is because they had the people
from the Carnegie Endowment for Peace on. They even had a critical fmr. state dept. official on there.

4. No, I only caught the last 30 minutes of it
we get News Hour, Nightly Business Journal, and on Fridays we get Washington Week in Review with Gwen Eye-full. The Carnegie (sp) foundation story was on our News Hour.

BTW,I think PBS does the best reporting of all the other news agencies. Probably because they rely mainly on contributions and aren't "owned" by the media giants. I always love to see other PBS viewers.
