Sunday News Show Notes

Here are some quick takeaways from Sunday news shows.
--"Meet the Press": I watched the show open today but turned the channel. I just can't get used to David Gregory anchoring this show. I haven't watched seriously since the election cycle.
--Flipped to "This Week": The roundtable was pretty good. It was thought-provoking at least. I can't believe the studio at the Newseum here in DC is as small as it is. That said, most TV studios are so tiny.. but look so grand on TV.
--"Dateline NBC" had the interview with Michael Phelps. I flipped to "60 Mintues". Is it just me... or is his golden boy image so tarnished that I really don't care anymore? He's still a hottie in those trunks... but geez, your image may have gone up in smoke in that bong. Was it worth it? (I use the trunks pic every chance I get. Just darn fun to look at. Too bad I live in DC and not Baltimore to see it in the pool.)
--I am happy to say that I enjoyed Scott Pelley's tw0 segment interview with Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke on '60 Minutes'. We saw a side of the fed leader we rarely see.... even going back to his hometown.
--Also, there was a strong promo for a solid report to come Monday night on the 'CBS Evening News'. I still contend that Katie Couric's broadcast is stronger now than ever... and she is given too little credit.
