EVERYTHING?

Like John, I have no idea if this is legit or not. (h/t Dvorak)

I gotta find a way into this next year.

This is how you do it.

WORD!

CBS to honor Rather.

CBS will televise a one-hour prime-time tribute to Dan Rather the night he leaves the evening news anchor chair, and its producer says it won’t avoid the story that has clouded his final days on the job.

“Dan Rather: A Reporter Remembers” will air 8 p.m. EST on March 9, an hour after he anchors his final evening newscast after 24 years, the network announced Thursday.

So, how many of us want to begin promoting a national “turn off your TV during between 8 PM EST and 9 PM EST on March 9th” campaign?

I’m in.

I’m paraphrasing because I don’t have a copy of the audio yet…

In response to this item from yesterday, Sean Hannity said today on his radio show that he still has a lot of friends who frequent Free Republic. He gave them lots of compliments. He claims that Freepers set the bar
high early on and established the standard for what the blogosphere is today.
But, now there are more bad freeper apples than good. He’s disappointed in the misdirected anger of Freepers because he has watched friends like Lucianne Goldberg, Rush Limbaugh, and others get crucified by these people. He says he expects personal attacks from the left, but not from supposed friends who claim to be like minded. Who claim to be fighting the same fight he is. He says a meanspiritedness has taken over the Free Republic and it simply isn’t the same
place anymore. There are tons of other issues to focus on and he can no longer be a part of a group of people who attack so viciously.

I’ll post the audio soon as it becomes available.

Update: Freepers are slow to forgive, but King Freeper Jim Robinson tells Sean to “Keep up the good work“.

Whoa. I’d say this guy is obsessed. If you’re into electronic music, and want to see a graphical representation of all, I MEAN ALL the various styles and genres that make up electronic music, you won’t want to miss this site. Click around…

over. It just can no longer pose as if it is The Guardian of Established Truth.
The MSM is just another player now. A big one, but a player. “

No doubt you’ve heard about “The Gates” in New York City’s Central Park. I don’t really see what all the hubbub is about to tell you the truth, but then again, I’ve never been much of an art connoisseur. If you are, and you can’t make it to NYC, then you’ll want to take a look at this virtual walk through the park, and judge The Gates for yourself.
