2. Each part has focused on a different aspect of the problem today...
Part One was

Part II examines recent First Amendment battles between the federal government and the press -- how much can the press reveal about secret government programs in the war on terror without jeopardizing national security? Part I takes a closer look at the unintended consequences of the Valerie Plame investigation, a confusing affair that ultimately damaged both reporters' reputations and the legal protections they thought they enjoyed.

3. And in Raleigh - we get the Blue Man Group.
Sure, entertaining - but just another way for the "liberal media" to pander to the liberals. Disgusting!

6. I might have a solution for you if you have DSL or a Cable Modem.
I've been using this on-line, TOTALLY FREE, video-via your computer service since July 2006:

<http://www.tvunetworks.com/>

TVU is 100% FREE! No Pop-up Ads, NO SpyWare, No Banner Ads, Nothing! Absolutely Free!

Why? I don't Know, but it started in China and a lot of the channels come from the Far East, but they have a few European Channels and several American Channels too. I think they have at least one PBS channel.

I SWEAR to you, It's safe! I have SpySweeper and Norton Anti-Virus and they have never found any Spyware or viruses in the software.

You don't even need a high-speed connection, but it helps. A LOT.

5. Layin' the troubles right at Ronald Raygun's feet
For deregulation. CBS turned "news" into a profit-making venture with 60-Minutes, but Raygun blew the doors off with deregulation.
