The most imprtant news with which Diane Sawyer started ABC evening News? [View all]

Why, the pregnancy of Kate Middleton, of course.

Never mind the continuing fights in Syria, the debates in D.C., any development in Israel, the continuing suffering after Sandy storm.

No, a long story - until I switched to CBS news in disgust - about the line to ascent to the crown, details about her "severe morning sickness" etc. I stopped watchong ABC news after Charlie Gibson left but the local ABC affiliate was the least nauseating and we did not bother to switch. Not immediately.

Bye bye Ms. Sawyer. You lost me years back with your antics with Elian Gonzales and GMA was always the fluffiest.

Except on Sept. 11, when Charlie Gibson was still there. As everyone was speculating on the first plane, the second came and Gibson just sat there, solemn and quietly said: Now we know.
