One small, nitpicking mental note on the Rather front: we couldn’t help but notice that old CBS hands like Diane Sawyer on ABC and Terence Smith on PBS didn’t happen to mention during their service on the Rather story that they had a bit of a career connection to Black Rock.

In an unrelated nitpick, notice how the networks are hosting fundraisers for tsunami relief through UNICEF? Does this make them even less likely to scrutinize UNICEF to see if the relief job gets done effectively?
