Wilson's outburst will be the lead story tomorrow morning
Was his outburst cold and calculated? You bet--but probably not for the reasons you first thought.

Mark my words...the M$M anchors will be buzzing on the AM shows, but not about anything Obama said. Sure, they'll play a couple of 4-second clips from the speech. But then the "big story" will be Wilson and his outburst. Then they'll bring on all sorts of pundits, not to discuss health care reform, but about Wilson. And whether his outburst was appropriate...and what will happen to him. Of course, the dumbed-down populace will follow suit: the watercooler chatter won't be about single payer vs. co-ops vs. public option, rather it will be "Did you hear what happened during the speech last night?"

Health reform discussion dead.

That's called "Burying the Story 101."

1. It was invisible on CNN.
I think it will be a side story.

2. Sigh....I hate that this will be the story and not Obama's great speech.
Rove and fucks at Faux thought Wilson was great. With all the lying Bush and company did, we never showed that much disrespect...and I'm actually proud of that right now.
