...Save the Awards Shows" were shameful [Jan. 14]. Any intelligent film reviewer knows that the best films and the most popular flicks are usually light-years apart in quality. Are the Academy Awards about honoring good filmmaking, or are they about trolling for viewers for the telecast? Shouldn't everyone be more concerned that the better films of the year get the attention they deserve? Stephen J. Miller, ORLANDO...
...game away to two of its national broadcast partners, CBS and NBC; as the league has done with all its Network games, the local stations in the home markets of both teams will also still get to air the broadcast. "We appreciate CBS and NBC delivering the NFL Network telecast on Saturday night to the broad audience that deserves to see this potentially historic game.

...graphic photos existed, Pentagon officials showed no particular urgency in finding out how bad they were or informing anyone else about them.

Who would not have relished a repeat confrontation between the conservative champion and the liberal prophet? Perhaps in October, when Thompson and Obama stand across the stage from each other, the hopes and dreams of both parties riding on their...
...heightened security was one reason why the Prime Minister's speech from the Serail on Sunday - to mark the anniversary of the car bomb assassination of an anti-Syrian newspaper publisher - was so sparsely attended. In the silent moment before the telecast went live, Fouad Siniora stood at his podium in the chandeliered Great Hall with his back to the windows facing downtown while the sound of the chants and cheers from the miked-up multitude below seeped through the drawn curtains and echoed off the chamber's marble walls. "Down with Siniora," the demonstrators have often shouted. "Siniora...
