Very sad news to come home to this afternoon.  May he rest in peace - he was a great man who truly loved America.

RIP Teddy. The senate won't be the same without its lion. I will admit I teared up when I heard the news. Then I became furious when I saw what fox was doing.

What exactly was FOX doing?

I don't know if he saw anything different, but, when CNN and MSNBC broke to the story in the middle of the night, Fox continue with regular programming for at least awhile.

I was just channel surfing and during the few minutes I was watching Beck labelled Teddy as one of the screw-ups (or humiliations, I don't remember which) of an already unstable family. Basically it was simply disrespectful.

Bastards.
CNN ultimately has my respect as to how they handled his death: all day long tribute with interviews and documentary about Ted Kennedy. It was amazing programing. I'm not huge on television news but CNN has officially won my nod for most respectful journalism. I wonder though if they had anything remotely that cool for Jack Kemp though....I would hope they did.

I never thought that even Fox would stoop that low though.......

And that's the reason Beck has been pissing me off lately.  That's just unnacceptable.
