In my wildest dreams: Mark Levine.

Levy..Levine...what's the difference...

IMHO, This is the guy who would bring in far more market share and finally bring the right perspective to world news...

Mikhail Gorbachev has the left-wing credentials for the job.

Hope I didn't offend anybody,..Mark Levine is probably an excellant choice.

Network anchorman has to be one of the most powerful positions in society, yet it's remarkably untouchable.

Consider the large number of high school and college kids who can easily be influenced by that type of image to seek that type of position for their career, yet the number of available positions dwarves almost any other profession. One would think this would favor more competition for the positions, yet it appears the incredible lack of turnover more directly implies a complete lack of competition.

"Hope they don't put HIM on a feeding tube."

It does not do much good to be ON a feeding tube, better to have a feeding tube surgically implanted IN you.

 

I guarantee you I could "surgically implant" a feeding tube in that jerk in such a way that he'd be ON it every time he sat down.

(Actually, I do hope things turn out OK for him.)

I wish people would read the articles before they comment.

"World" refers to "World News Tonight" the show, not the planet. Hence the quotes around the world in the Newsday title. And yes, since the star of the show, Jennings is working on dodging the Grim Reaper the show will have to change.

"Headline reads Changes 'World' not 'the' world--Jennings show was called World News I believe."

See how little attention I pay to him.

I think you're right it is called World News Tonight. I'm not going to check it though. I simply don't care.

OKay, put one IN him and then try to remove it. You'll hear all the liberals screaming bloody murder.

"Just exactly who will replace one of the great anchors in TV history?"

In my wildest dreams: Mark Levine.

Then he can be the whiniest anchor in TV history.

I think they meant World News Tonight, not the actual world....

hahaha...no, they meant the actual world. Enclosing World in single quotes was their way of being cute while providing the headline writer plausable deniability.

I vote for George Suffinenvelopes. He's done so well on Sunday morning, that weekday evenings will be very easy.

Eugene Levy as news anchor Earl Camembert could have passed for Jennings anytime!

The question on my mind is "Just who watches ABC News ?"

Jennings' illness changes the world as much as removing a bucket of water changes an ocean.

Boy I can tell you haven't been watching ABC....

Removing a bucket of water causes an eddie which affects the current which causes a thunderstorm which causes the extinction of the Australian Rabbit Bat which causes George Bush to win the election ......

Please try and keep up with these things ;-) ;-)
