CONTAINING LINKS TO 58103 STORIES FROM THE NETWORKS' NIGHTLY NEWSCASTS
     TYNDALL HEADLINE: HIGHLIGHTS FROM JULY 09, 2007
The erosion of support among Republican senators for President George Bush's military strategy in Iraq was the Story of the Day. ABC and NBC both led with the looming renewal of the Congressional debate over attaching troops-out provisions to funding for the war--NBC from the White House, ABC from Capitol Hill. CBS covered the Iraq debate too, but later in its newscast. For its lead, CBS chose the summer heat, as last week's western heatwave moved to the cities of the midwest and eastern seaboard. Phew! What a scorcher!
