The three network anchors will travel to Europe and the Middle East next week for Barack Obama's trip, adding their high-wattage spotlight to what is already shaping up as a major media extravaganza.
Lured by an offer of interviews with the Democratic presidential candidate, Brian Williams, Charlie Gibson and Katie Couric will make the overseas trek, meaning that the NBC, ABC and CBS evening newscasts will originate from stops along the route and undoubtedly give it big play.

Quite a contrast to the low-key coverage of Republican John McCain’s European and Middle East trip in March, Democrat Barack Obama will be accompanied next week by a campaign plane of reporters and trailed by three network broadcast anchors on his five-country European and Middle Eastern tour.

Obama is going to come back "likened to General Patton"...like he's even worthy to utter his name.
How come Obama sat on his butt for a couple of years...doing coke...instead of volunteering for the Peace Corps...or learning Spanish.

The next logical step is to have those anchors read from a text prepared by Obama himself. Oh wait, that’s actually not that far from what is already happening.

A Chrissy Matthews doctor visit! So right on the money for the obsequious bastards in the DNC propaganda networks.
