Not so long ago, it seemed like big news that a woman -- CBS' Katie Couric -- would be chosen to anchor the nightly news at a major network. Now Couric's got some competition in Diane Sawyer, who'll replace Charlie Gibson at ABC's "World News" starting in January.
During a sit-down interview with ABC's Charlie Gibson that aired on Wednesday, Barack Obama talked about the economy and how he'd lead differently from President Bush before addressing the McCain-Palin campaign's ramped-up attacks of late. "All these statements are made simply to try to score cheap political points," Obama told Gibson.
To his credit, ABC's Charlie Gibson posed some practical and pertinent questions in the first installment of his interview with Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin, and he didn't let her off the hook when she conflated "national security" with "energy independence." Updated
Why were so many journalists so aggravated by the latest presidential debate? According to Politico scribes John F. Harris and Jim VandeHei, it wasn't about George Stephanopoulos and Charlie Gibson's less substantive questions -- instead, the problem was that "this time there were more hard questions for Obama than for Clinton."
