Leslie Stahl Bitchslaps Whorrie Kurtz!

This lady gave no quarter...

Sorry to paraphrase, but here's the essence. She kicked his ass!


Whorrie: "Isn't it suspect that CBS, considering the 60 Minutes II story (codeword: Rathergate) dropping this bomb on the eve of the election appear as being political?"

Stahl: "We don't tie the two together, this is a story that we're working on and have to wait on sources to make sure it's right...sometimes you have to wait and the calendar makes no matter"

Then Whorrie used the "we" in condemning the "media" (of course not himself since he focuses his hypocricy on the media) of "going tabloid".

Stahl gave him a 12th rectum by saying how can you compare 60 Minutes and CBS News with Crossfire.

Game, Set, Match!!!

1. Pardon my ignorance. What story is CBS going to break?

3. The Al Qaa Qa Story...

CBS originally was going to break it on 60 Minutes tonight, the New York Times beat them to it last Monday and made Bunnypant's week pure hell.

Right now Clarence Paige is doing a number on both Kurtz and David Frumm (yeeech).

2. Boot to the head

Its sad that the story fell apart on 60 minutes, but they are still one of the top journalistic news magazines in broadcasting. That little spin doctor got what she deserved.
