60 minutes was scooped out of screwing Bush on the explosives story this Sunday, so now they're going for the "hundreds of our soldiers are dead becuase we didn't provide armor" story.

IN HARM'S WAY - Even though roadside explosive devices account for half of all the war's U.S. casualties, soldiers are still getting killed and wounded by them because the Pentagon hasn't provided enough fully-armored vehicles to protect them. Steve Kroft reports.

Their other segments are on Saturday Night Live and Arnold Schwarzenegger. Couldn't they have done something about John Kerry - even a positive story? Let's see if they at least have the decency to mention the $87 million in funding for armor and weapons that John Kerry voted against.

I realize that 60 Minutes prides itself on investigative (i.e. attack) journalism, but give me a break. This story is so old it has mold on it.
