Stange Sunday talk show happenings

The main one was this. Apparently a press aide to Colin Powell literally moved the camera away from the state secretary's face to try and force an end to an interview with Sunday talk king Tim Russert. Bad, bad move. Russert aired the pre-taped interview unedited, showing the indiscretion. Just what the Bushies needed -- more bad PR!

And in a separate ocurrence, Seymour Hersh, the anti-Bush journalist who's all the talk over his latest New Yorker piece, was on CBS this morning with Bob Schieffer and made a victorious fist action at the end of the interview, apparently believing (wrongly) that the interview was over and that the cameras were off.
