What BBN said about it

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorKate Gosselin has now responded to her son Collin's memoir, and tonight, folks, I was supposed to give you three talking points about it.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorTalking point number one: the internet wants a verdict by bedtime. Really? On a twelve-year-old in a psychiatric facility and a mother's four-word reply?

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorTalking point number two: this family spent years on television, and now every outlet in America is racing to be the first to tell you what they think of it.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorAnd the headlines are doing what headlines do. Explosive. Breaks silence. Silence that lasted, what, a few hours?

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorTalking point number three. I don't have one, folks, and that's the first honest segment I've ever done in this chair.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorA kid told his story, his mother answered, and neither one needs a panel from me.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorSo tonight the talking points are cancelled, and for once the loudest man at the desk is going to be quiet.
