this story is about j.t. alpaugh, the pool photographer for the aerial coverage of katrina. the programs begin to differentiate themselves. o'reilly was political; scarborough was sedate; 'nightline' tells the stories you don't hear elsewhere; 'countdown' is focusing on different perspectives (aerial perspectives). it's very newsmagazine-ish, but it's a viewpoint worth hearing. honestly, how many politicians and military types can one listen to during the day? |
my name is fred solinger. on wednesday, september 7, i will provide running commentary on seventeen straight hours of running commentary, opinion, and straight news from a variety of radio stations and television networks. my objective is to be objective ... beyond that, i'm not quite sure, but hopefully it'll be more lucid at 4am, when all of this is over. one thing is for sure: i won't be lucid at that hour. links to the monitored programs, arranged ideologically*, in alphabetical order, lest i be charged w/ bias: the fair & balanced: the left: the right: *that is, when the host has an avowed political position; otherwise, they are assumed to be independent. this is as applicable to bill o'reilly, who leans right, as it is to jon stewart, who leans left.    |
