We’ll see how this goes. I’m taking notes on those who are covering the Inauguration. Pardon the spelling errors on names.
6:55 AM
Matt McClesky on Morning Edition, WAMU 885, interviewed Paul Dickson, who talked about Presidents and language. Paul is quite the expert on Washington history and politics.
7 AM
NBC Morning Show with Matt and the gang, Capitol in the background. Natalie Morales interviewing David Axlerod.
FOXNews 5 local coverage. They always do a great job.
ABC GMA, George and Josh live from the Mall. GMA, who has trended toward fluffy stuff, managing to squeeze in a clip of a loose lemur in Florida. Really guys, you think your regular viewers are that addicted to the silly stuff?
CBS morning show. I like their new direction. Major Garrett reporting from the White House. Bob Schaeffer giving the bigger picture on the challenges for Obama 2.0 Give it up for Bob, he’s covered Washington like no other journalist, the only one to claim the Grand Slam, White House, Congress, Pentagon, State Department.
CNN. They did a great job this weekend from the Mall. John Roberts is talking with four talking heads.
FOXNEWS is talking with Donald Trump. Time to change the channel.
IMUS, earlier was showing the King Dream speech. Major points earned!
MSNBC and Morning Joe is live from the Dubliner Bar in DC – hey, what’s in that coffee?
Radio coverage, WAMU/NPR, our morning pals Renee Montagne and Matt McClesky. Interview with Paul Dickson. You can’t do better than Paul for local history and national politics.
Annette Oulabi is live covering the parade staging area. Participants seem punch drunk from the oh dark early wake up. She said the parade path will be “through the mall.” Now that would be interesting!
Jerry Edwards gave the morning drive report, no problems so far.
Amondo Trull covering Metro. Reminder that 3 stations closed. No problems so far.
It’s now 8:06 am. Sun is rising, temps about 33, cloudy to the north.
I’m going to eat my eggs!
