You know what? You're right. I should have known better. David Bloom did die in Iraq. David Gregory remains on the job for NBC.
Mistakes do occur, I'm sure you would agree.
But for such a vitriolic reaction, do you think I misnamed my 'Davids' on purpose? Do you think I did it to ruin your day?
Cool down, sweetie. Mistakes happen. Don't let it ruin your weekend.
But if I personally offended YOU, sorry. You OK now? Really, are you OK?
Finally, when you say "First of all" and leave it at that, I'm left wondering, what was supposed to be second? A reply to the post, ya pinhead!?

this whole thing goes back to Imus and his buddies
sick, tasteless and improper treatment of contessa a few weeks ago.
so so many of you fools thought that was ok or part of a routine.
it wasn't and isn't
if you don't thiink its wrong to call a news anchor a slut and fat and exclaim that she must be wet after talking to a colleague in baghdad, i feel very sorry for you
i could care less about contessa and i don't think she's a great anchor.
but i do know that co workers in a freaking newsroom should not have to put with high school obscenities and trash talk on live tv.
if you are part o fthe gimmick and agree to it....great...but if not, it simply isn't acceptable and my guess is that NOW unlike earlier, contessa is almost surely consulting a lawyer and could get a giant payout if she wants to down that road.
