Since we're on points like this one, does anyone out there remember the the
first shots of the '86 Challenger disaster? One chase plane scene showed
for about 1/2 a day on CNN, as if it were normal and planned, then simply
disappeared. It *hadn't* anything to do with the SRBs... Did anyone see?
Does anyone remenber? Off list responses preferred...
Cheers!

It never made it to CNN or MSNBC.
MSNBC's web site also altered a story the other day regarding Osama bin
Ladin and Iraq. The first release made mention that bin Ladin was calling
his people to kill Hussein. Then, when the US held a press briefing on
the same topic, and tried to make it sound as if bin Ladin was in cahoots
with Hussein, MSNBC suddenly altered their story, removing the reference.
No explination to the change. Could have been an error, could have been
an oversite, could have been a request by someone... could have been
anything. Point is, the story took a change to reflect the US governments
desired position on the topic, and they just pretened it had always been
that way.
Humm... does Winston Smith work for MSNBC?
