I can't resist pointing this out:

Power Line, update #13 to The Sixty-First Minute, at approximately noon on September 9, 2004:

60 Minutes is toast.

Gil Schwartz, head of the Communications Group at CBS, at approximately 1 p.m. on September 10, 2004:

We need two things:

1. We need our expert available NOW to speak to all those who are reporting this story. We need the expert. Now. We need him now.

***

#1 is essential RIGHT NOW. We NEED THAT EXPERT. [W]ithout him, we're TOAST.
