Pgage opined: This is stunning in its stupidity - even for a cable "news" operation. Miles is not flawless, but he is something of a rarity in TV news these days - he actually knows what he is talking about. And when a real science story breaks, he is able to cover it, on the fly, with competence, expertise, context and experience. Most of these other airheads CNN puts on its anchor desk come across like they just boned up on whatever subject they are talking about in a 15 minute google or wikipedia session.
I guess it is not surprising that CNN does not see the need for journalists who know what they are talking about, but it is, even so, very, very sad. Karla sez: I agree wholeheartedly. I actually tune in to CNN for Miles O'Brien specifically when a science or space related breaking news story hits. He does know his stuff, especially about the space program. This is really crazy. I hope he lands on his feet. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Like TV only smarter.
