Hi everyone, first I want to say happy thanksgiving to all of you. I hope ya had fun, ate and drink. Well not to much. Over the last few days. I've been watchin The NewsHour with Jim Lehrer on PBS. Now those who do not who is Jim Lehrer. I'm gonna tell ya because this is how I make my money. Jim Lehrer is an newsman. He and his partner Robert MacNeil covered Watergate for PBS in 1974. In 1975 they both starred in The Robert MacNeil Report for WNET. It mainly focused on one story/topic. Sort of like Nightline. A few months after its was renamed The MacNeil/Lehrer Report. In 1983 it was renamed The MacNeil/Lehrer Newshour. The first and only evening news that is still to this day one hour. In 1995 Robert MacNeil retired and was renamed to its current name The NewsHour with Jim Lehrer. It offers more in depth analysis then any of the three networks. It's combines the elements CBS Evening News with the most successful newsmagazine 60 Minutes. The NewsHour is a wonderful news program and and The NewsHour gives us the news that we need to know. So I encourage you to watch The NewsHour. It's on every weeknight at 6:00pm on WLIW 21 and at 7:00pm on WNET 13. From the American Archive of TV an interview with Jim Lehrer. CNN's legendary figure Bernard Shaw dubbed him the "Dean of Moderators" for covereing 10 presidental debates.
