I was flabbergasted watching the shows on the cable news channels last night. In trying to decide what was the headline story of the night, they honestly seemed torn between the killings of Uday and Qusay Hussein--two of the three highest-ranked targets in the entire Iraq war--and the latest developments in the Kobe Bryant rape case.

On Keith Olbermann's "Countdown" of the day's top news stories on MSNBC, he ranked the elimination of the Hussein boys fifth.

You have to love where television news has gone in these modern times. "In Iraq today, U.S. troops found an enormous stockpile of active nuclear missiles. But first, breaking news on the Ben Affleck/Jennifer Lopez engagement!"
