4 and 5, not 6 and 7

tucker carlson was fired today as well--which is too bad, because he was a sensible and intelligent critic of the left (esp. his war reporting !! in iraq) , i wonder exactly happened, when cnn cheifs are glib, nothing good comes out of it:

"I guess I come down more firmly in the Jon Stewart camp"
CEO Klein

(i think carlson had a point, i think that there is something nervous about how much the young are disaffected, so mired in irony that all information has to be dismissed before it is absorbed--and this is coming from a man who thinks that stewart is as close as we can get to swift in a mclunan age--i also think that stewarts point, about how cnn ( a real news network) has given up on reportage, and has become a series of b adly perfomed, litrigucally tight theatrical rituals. )

so no one comes out good here
