I'm sick of it! I'm actually having to switch over to CNN to get some type of news other than this! I can't believe Fox News just showed 5 minutes of their reporters chasing Condit down the street with the camera jumping all over the place and the anchor commenting, "This is what it's like to be in a fish bowl."

Why can't they just leave it alone and just give an hourly report? They're beating this thing to death.

Restrict your viewing to the CBS Evening "News", but only when Dan Rather anchors.  Strangely, Chandra Levy and Condit are [i]never[/i] mentioned on that broadcast.  I guess Danny-boy doesn't think it qualifies as news.

I agree it's news, but Fox News seems to be going 24/7 with it.

That's what happens when you live in an age where news and entertainment become the same thing.

Best hollywood pimp voice - "Hey man, It's all about the ratings."

I'd prefer to actually hear information.  Makes me wonder what's going on quietly elsewhere.

Part of me is sick of the story too.  Don't get me wrong... a missing person is definitely nothing to joke about.  This story wouldn't be reaching us, however, if it were not for the Congressional intern connection (which may have nothing to do with the actual case).

Also, the vindictive side of me is secretly glad that its a Dem. Congressman who's getting taken down.  I don't think we really want to be digging around in Congressional closets, however, because I think we'd just find more of this (on both sides of the line).
