CONTAINING LINKS TO 1280 STORIES FROM THE NETWORKS' NIGHTLY NEWSCASTS
     COMMENTS: It was a Freebie

ABC's Nick Watt had fun with Silvio Berlusconi's sexcapades earlier this month when Barack Obama visited Italy. Now Elizabeth Palmer dishes about the "indiscreet but ultimately lovable old rogue" on CBS. Patrizia d'Addario, a Roman prostitute, has published audiotapes that she claims to be her pillow talk with the 72-year-old prime minister. In his own defense, "Berlusconi swears he did not pay for the alleged sex."

NBC displayed odd news judgment in failing to find a single newsworthy overseas story all day yet airing a couple of reports on children's summer camps: George Lewis on campers struck down with H1N1 influenza; and Miguel Almaguer on Operation Purple Making a Difference, a Santa Barbara camp for children from military families whose parents have been sent off to war.
