Both NBC and ABC filed from their Los Angeles bureaus on a hiker's discovery near Mammoth Lakes in the Sierra Nevada. Preston Murrow came across some crumpled $100 bills and some weathered pieces of aviator's identification. ABC's Lisa Fletcher and NBC's John Larson concluded that this was probably the 13-month-old crash site of missing millionaire aviator Steve Fossett…ABC's Jeffrey Kofman landed the plumb assignment of a trip to the Galapagos Islands now UNESCO has named them an endangered World Heritage Site. So many ecotourists follow in Charles Darwin's footsteps that the unique environment is becoming degraded. Kofman hardly helped that cause by showing us the giant tortoises and blue-footed boobies and specialized finch species. His report served as irresistible tourist advertising…And ABC's closer warmed the heart of anchor Charles Gibson, a Chicagoan for the first dozen years of his life. Both the Cubs and the White Sox have qualified for baseball's post-season but no one there is allowed to wish both teams well, noted Chris Bury: "Neutrality is for Switzerland! This is Chicago!"
