CONTAINING LINKS TO 1280 STORIES FROM THE NETWORKS' NIGHTLY NEWSCASTS
     COMMENTS: Kerik Fallout

NBC had John Yang quote Republican Presidential candidate Rudolph Giuliani's explanation yesterday as to why he appointed Bernard Kerik as his police commissioner in New York City and recommended him as federal Homeland Security Secretary when he was suspected of organized-crime-related graft: "When you are Mayor of New York, you make 100,000 decisions. Some of them you make wrong. Then the question is what happened to the city as a result of those decisions." Now CBS' Byron Pitts followed Kerik's plea of not guilty to corruption charges with the possibility of "political problems" for his mentor. Specifically Giuliani's rival John McCain added another piece of evidence about Giuliani's lack of judgment in his protege: "Supposedly his mission was to help train Iraqi police. He stayed a couple of months, got up and left!"
