Tag: “Beat the Press”

Beating the press

I’ll be doing my semi-regular turn on “Beat the Press” today at 7 p.m. (WGBH-TV, Channel 2). Among our topics, not surprisingly, is the Time magazine report on the alleged Gloucester “pregnancy pact.”

Beating the press

I’m on “Beat the Press” this week. One subject I know we’ll be talking about is whether the media — and especially NBC and MSNBC — made too much of Tim Russert’s death. The show will be broadcast later today, at 7 p.m., on WGBH-TV (Channel 2).

Beating the press

I’ll be back on “Beat the Press” tomorrow (7 p.m., WGBH-TV, Channel 2). Among other things we’ll be talking about you-know-what. Because I’m on the show most of the time, I usually don’t bother to take note of it here. But I’ve occasionally been asked to, so I’ll try to remember.
