Anticlimactic News Story of the Day
The subject header to the Email was nothing short of explosive:
Bob Schieffer: Is the End Near?
By the thundering sword of Zeus, you think: Is the guy sick? Is he forecasting the demise of CBS News? Or is he going stark-raving Nostradamus on us and is warning us we’re all doomed?
Nah, nothing that interesting. The former “CBS Evening News” anchor and “Face the Nation” moderator just floats the notion to TV Guide that maybe he’ll retire after the 2008 election:
“Quite frankly, I don't know what I'm going to do after that. I'll have some sort of relationship with CBS. But I think Inauguration Day is probably going to be my last in the role I have now.”
Given that the guy’s in his 70s, that’s hardly earth-shattering news. Thanks for the bulletin, TV Guide.

David Kronke was appointed Mayor of Television after a bloodless coup in 2000. Since then, he has improved infrastructure, championed greater educational opportunities and fought for reforms that have utterly erased corruption and incompetence from the television industry. Since Mr. Kronke has ascended to power, Television is a far better place.
