Fox Ness has zero credibility with me, but I have to say I have been impressed with CBS News, under the leadership of David Rhodes, who apparently used to be a VP at Fox News. 

I wound up watching a lot of CBS on election night, and was very impressed with Scott Pelley and Norah O'Donnell (though CBS came in third among the Big 3 network news operations that night). I did not watch ABC at all, apparently missing out on a drunk Diane Sawyer. I started out that day watching CNN, who turned out not to be as bad as I feared they would be, but as the returns came in I confess I was anxious enough that I needed a hit of Rachel to calm my nerves. One thing I like about her is several times she used the phrase "for a liberal like me" - not pretending to not have a dog in the race. But I spent probably 60% of the night with CBS, and was very happy - though somehow I wound up on NBC for the money shot, and heart Brian Williams announce that Ohio was going Blue.

I should point that Garrett's resume includes the Moonie-run Washington Times, although during his stint there he went on NPR a lot to do analysis.

Oh! Another of those damn liberals at NPR! What? Wasn't Glenn Beck available?
