I was waiting for this to go up. We're about t-minus one hour from it (depending on how long Duke-Xavier goes, I guess). Too bad it's not going to be a long interview like Clarke had. I've noticed that 60 Minutes are not promoting this either. The commercial I just saw advertised the story on soccer phenom Freddy Adu, not the story on Rice or Pickering. I also discovered from the link referenced above that Rice spoke to them this morning and not yesterday as I'd heard would be the case before. Bill Kristol predicted this morning that Rice might say that if this is really such a big deal that she'll testify in public under oath as she's been badgered to do. I don't think Bill has a good track record on predicting news, so take that with a grain of salt. By the way, go Xavier-- I had Duke losing before now in my office pool bracket, but my opponents have them winning it all.

And will someone in the media please refer to Richard Clarke as something other than the hea dof counter-terrorism. Is that the post he really held?

[prairiebreeze]

How much time will CBS pimp Clarke tonight and his book again.

OOOO, the adminsitration had a ferocious reactions. Colin Powell, continued the attacks this morning, and so did Rumsfeld.

Funny they don't sound like attacks to me.....

[A Citizen Reporter]

ONce again, Bradley does NOT disclose that the "best-selling" book of Clarke's is published by the same company, that brings this very show to you currently.

[Peach]

Showed a soundbite of Rumsfeld saying "Clarke has me in his book going to a meeting I didn't attend."

[lonevoice]

the Condi segment they chose is the one where she explains why she won't testify publicly.

I figured CBS was only doing this so they could provide selected media soundbites of Condi saying she won't testify publicly. I hoped I was wrong...

[Endeavor]

Notice how much time is going to talking about Clarke - not talking with Condi. I hate 60 Minutes.

[Peach]

OMG. They have so far given more time to Clarke than they have to Condi!!!!!

[Terry Mross]

Sixty Minutes is re-running Clark's allegations more than Condi.

[mystery-ak]

Good close-up shots of Clarke's/CBS book....good plug CBS.

[prairiebreeze]

Yes, you are correct. Bet you a cookie that they do not bring up the viacom connection AGAIN!

[NeoCaveman]

Funny they don't sound like attacks to me.....

Republicans defending themselves is an attack to the media.

[Rummyfan]

And still no disclosure from 60 Minutes that Clarke's book publisher and CBS are both under Viacom!

[alnick]

Oh, so it's the White House that changed it story, according to CBS. Unbelievable.

[Trueblackman]

CBS is going to get its ass handed to it.

[babaloo]

All negative attacks so far by Bradley.

[McGruff]

Ed Bradley looks sickly.

[Peach]

And I know many Freepers, myself included, who called and wrote CBS that they should definitely have disclosed their financial interest in the book.

[Cosmo]

No kidding. This is pathetic.

I'm willing to bet Clarke's comments about Condi will be left out of this interview.

[NeoCaveman]

CBS is going to get its ass handed to it.

May it be so

Re: Your tagline, I'd vote for you.

[Rummyfan]

He sure doesn't look - or sound - too healthy.
