CONTAINING LINKS TO 1280 STORIES FROM THE NETWORKS' NIGHTLY NEWSCASTS
     COMMENTS: Commander-in-Chief Leads Mourning at Fort Hood

"No faith justifies these murderous and craven acts. No just and loving God looks upon them with favor." Thus President Barack Obama indirectly disposed of the suspicion that last week's massacre at Fort Hood was inspired by the accused killer's Islamic religion. The President was speaking at a memorial service at the base for the slain 13, attended by some 15,000 soldiers. The killings were Story of the Day (23 min v 18 Monday, 44 Friday, 41 Thursday) for the fourth straight weekday since they occurred.

CBS and NBC both led off with coverage of the memorial from the base itself. NBC's Mark Potter said it had been "a solemn day here, of pain and remembrance." CBS' Dean Reynolds saw the army "draw on all of its traditions to bid farewell to the fallen"--the so-called battlefield crosses of boots, rifle, bayonet and helmet; the calling of the roll, in which the living respond with Here, Sergeant Major and the dead respond with silence. "The absences broke the heart," CBS' Reynolds reflected. ABC chose to have anchor Charles Gibson narrate the observances from his New York City studio and assign Bob Woodruff (at the tail of the Gibson videostream) at Fort Hood to a round-up of how the bereaved watched the service on television--from St Paul to Spokane to Main Street in smalltown Wisconsin.
