Media personalities, particularly television journalists, are not typically known for sharing their religious faith, or indeed, in many cases, even having one.So that's why, her history of bias aside, it was nice to see CBS reporter Hannah Storm blogging about trusting in God's will in a blog post marking her departure from the "Early Show":Hi everybody! Thanks so much for all your well wishes…

Can I get an "argh"?As detailed here, "Abu Omar al-Baghdadi" was long-ago outed as a figment of al Qaeda-in-Iraq's imagination, a transparent attempt to give a home-grown flavor to the foreign-controlled AQI operation by claiming that the non-existent Baghdadi, supposedly an Iraqi, was AQI's leader.But despite the debunking of the bogus Mr. Baghdadi, the environmentally-sensitive Reuters recycles…

While you ponder, the Associated Press finally reported Monday (h/t…

CBS News has discovered a dire new dirty political tactic. It is called "bundling." No, not the bundling of campaign funds as was performed by Norman Hsu for Hillary Clinton. This new bundling reported by CBS involves allowing ballot petition initiatives to be "bundled" together by signature collectors. CBS has presented the fact that signature collectors in California are collecting signatures…

Does it mean anything this far out, and which slide do you think press will focus more attention on?Talking point #2: Did last night's NFL game, with timely flags giving the Patriots the win, leave you with the feeling the league wants them to have a perfect season, or did you think the game was…
