NBC, ABC trying to bury CBS?

Despite their best efforts, the MSM has been unable to put Kerry over the top in his bid for the White House. But of the big three broadcast networks, only CBS still clings to the hope that its news department can swing the election to Kerry. There comes a point when it is time to cut your losses and this appears to be the time for the folks over at NBC and ABC. Capitalism may finally be overcoming their leftist tendancies enough to start piling on their competition over at CBS.

First, NBC ran with a story contradicting the Times/CBS Al Qaa Qaa contentions, now ABC is acting like they are a real news organization as well:

The documents [obtained by ABC] show IAEA inspectors looked at nine bunkers containing more than 194 tons of HMX at the facility. Although these bunkers were still under IAEA seal, the inspectors said the seals may be potentially ineffective because they had ventilation slats on the sides. These slats could be easily removed to remove the materials inside the bunkers without breaking the seals, the inspectors noted."

Although ABC and NBC still tilt heavily left, I begin to think that these news organizations are half-heartedly admiting that their efforts have not helped their guy in the polls enough and it's time to stop putting good money after bad. One could even argue that the more they try to prop Kerry up, the worse it gets for him. Although the MSM generally moves as a pack, NBC and ABC may have decided that CBS is very vulnerable these days. It would be arena sport to see them eat one of their own.
