CNN's X: MSM Vs. Blogosphere

The CNN "X" story broke last night at 9:25 p.m., which would give West Coast print and TV media two or three hours to research and write a story.

Nexis early this morning revealed no hits for a "CNN AND Cheney AND X OR 'X'" search. Granted, it's early and they may pick some up hits as their system loads through the day. But a look through today's LATimes article on the speech revealed no talk of X's -- but plenty of quotes from Dems countering Cheney.

Meanwhile over at Technorati, we find 20 posts in the last four hours. The actual number is much greater than that, since many posts flew around last night.

So, the score's Blogs 20+, MSM 0. Pretty typical.
