...feel about the tabloids generally? Aside from that, you've had a real life in the tabloids. Do you feel like that's just the cost of doing business? I think it is to some extent. Try to think of anybody ever in television before Regis and myself who talked about their lives for a living. It was brand-new. Nobody had ever, ever done it before on a national level. I went through my pregnancies on television, the birth of my children, my courtship and marrying Frank was all on television. It was I Love Lucy but not scripted...
...senior lecturer in public policy at the Harvard Kennedy School, directed the proceedings which at times mimicked the atmosphere one might find in a ballpark—audience members wearing baseball jerseys and munching on Cracker Jacks occasionally called out with a boo or hiss.

They're doing all this kind of stuff...
...Afghanistan seems a bit better than expected, Pakistan appears much worse. There are terrorist attacks - some quite spectacular - almost every day, but the fragile democratic government of Asif Ali Zardari, the widower of Benazir Bhutto, seems unwilling to admit the extent of the problem. "The terrorist threat is a cancer eating my country," Zardari told the small group of journalists accompanying the Mullen-Holbrooke mission, as he sat in his office, flanked by dramatic photos of his wife. It was a good line, but unsupported by anything resembling a strategy to combat the disease. When we asked about the role...
