CONTAINING LINKS TO 1280 STORIES FROM THE NETWORKS' NIGHTLY NEWSCASTS
     COMMENTS: Greening of Gore

Former Presidential candidate Al Gore is attracting plaudits on his tour for The Assault on Reason, a book that is "knocking the media with one arm and the Bush Administration with the other," according to CBS' Sharyn Alfonsi. Alfonsi marveled at Gore's newfound ease: he "seems to have gone from awkward to almost slick…the gut who was once the punchline now seems to be in on the joke." So besides helping to sell his book, why should CBS find Al newsworthy? Anchor Katie Couric answered in her introduction with a huge Campaign 2008 graphic. He is the third most popular Democratic Presidential candidate in some polls. "He is just not in the race," said Alfonsi, "at least not yet."
