So the aide says that Russert was going over the allocated time and Powell had to be somewhere else. Russert gets pissy about it and Powell agrees to answer one more question.

The real question is why wasn't that edited out. It wasn't a major news item, it was just some egos and schedules clashing. Not news worthy. If they lost the satellite and just had a test pattern for a couple of minutes, would Russert have shown that or edited it out?

Because Russert wanted it to be a news item. The liberal media has been pushing the idea that the administration is too controlling when it comes to allowing them access. This fit their agenda and Timmy is making this non-story into a news item. Besides, it helps keep him front and center so that he can push his new book.

It wasnt editted out because Russert imagines this to be some kind of scoop. Aha! A Coverup!
