People at the Today Show are stuck in Yesterday, when the Lamestream media ruled the airwaves with only 3 major networks. Today, they wander around like dinosaurs wondering why it's getting so cold, and there is nothing to eat.
Good riddance to them.

One beer with lunch 5 hours before the incident does not make a drunk hunter...... The media is so juvenile....I can see them holding their breath and turning red....the little darlings just need a nap.

Kelley O'Donnell is a liar. That clip was played on the Brit Hume show last evening. O'Donnell fits well at NBS with that a$$ David Gregory.

I heard Dick Cheney say on Brit Hume that he had a lunch time beer.
Am I misunderstanding that the MSM is saying that Brit did not show the clip, but just reported.
I am confused.

It was shown on FNC around 2 pm yesterday. Not only is the Today Show a day late, but they're liars.

Having watched the Hume/Cheney interview, I was jarred by O'Donnell's statement since I was certain that I had heard reference to the mid-day beer. And sure enough, the interview transcript confirms it: Brit Hume: "The Vice-President said he had one beer at lunch, but the afternoon hunt began a couple hours later." So Hume and Fox News did indeed inform its viewers of the facts, but chose to have Hume report them rather than playing the Cheney clip. Yet the clear inference from the Today show story was that Fox News failed to disclose the lunch-time beer. If anyone is hiding facts from viewers, it is NBC News and the Today show. ----

Nice catch.......... they lie in so many ways.

Having one beer two hours before any incident is non-news. It only takes one hour to metabolize one beer.
To: governsleastgovernsbest
NBC flat out LIED.
I heard the clip yesterday afternoon on FOX- the VP himself said he had a beer at lunch(the "incident" took place hours later).

A beer? Since he was hunting quail in south Texas I would have been more worried if he had a Perrier.

I watched the interview twice. He said he had a beer at lunch, it wasn't hidden.....I am so tired of this story. It is venom laden.

FNC should have some fun with this.

That's right. O'Donnell said the FNC didn't play the clip of Cheney saying he had a beer, but she failed to add that Brit Hume clearly stated the same facts. I can't see it as other than an intentional deception on Today's part.
