Any predictions on what the friday/weekend media dump (end of the day)
might hold?

There were murmurs that some movement was happening on the Plame investigation... could that be included?

What else might make its way into the "lightly covered weekend news" this afternoon?

2. One shudders to think
given what we've seen and heard all this week, hard to imagine they're holding onto something worse. :scared:

4. There must be an avalance of bad news
they have been holding on to waiting for the last couple of weekends. They haven't been able to dump on the last couple of Fridays because of the torture news. Wonder if they are going to let a lot of it loose this weekend.

5. so much bad stuff coming with ties to the justice department
will there come a time when a friday news dump sees the departure of a high ranking official (as a fall guy) from DoJ?

The circles of bullseyes are also honing in on Feith - easier to let him go as the symbolic dive and leave rummy and wolfie to keep the funders happy. Could we sometime soon see that kind of resignation?

Completely speculating here... not based on anything - just know that this is always the need to get out there news day (so its out, sorta known but not fixated on by the media and the evening news watching public)...

Perhaps the news is SO bad these days (with Jr in a freefall from decent news/press since early January) that the newsdump strategy is becoming moot.
