COMMENTS: Christie Grabs Spotlight in NYC’s Back Yard
A large part of ABC's newscast was devoted to anchor Diane Sawyer's trip to New Jersey for an extended profile of its soundbite-friendly Republican governor Chris Christie. NBC anchor Brian Williams made the same trip last fall, so it is CBS' turn to give Christie the spotlight next. Being so close to the nation's media center certainly helps his ability to attract attention. Sawyer stood up for her family's profession: mother and aunts are schoolteachers. "Listen. I do not want to get rid of tenure. I want to make it better," Christie promised. In the next exchange, the governor contradicted himself: "Tenure is failing our students…You have to prove yourself every day."
