Switching between the network and cable news programs last night was pretty much an exercise in futility...especially if you were tired of all of nonsense surrounding the Michael Jackson verdict.
One newsman who did get it right was NBC Nightly News anchor Brian Williams, who started his career at KOAM. This was how Williams concluded his broadcast last night:
"In the time since Jackson's arrest, a president's been elected, a pope has died and been replaced, a tsunami has changed the world and Iraqis have voted. Also, consider this: Since the Jackson arrest: 1,322 Americans have died and another 11,000 have been wounded, in two armed conflicts overseas. Tonight, at long last, it is time to move on."
