So says Steve Friedman, producer of the The CBS Morning Show, now third in a three-horse morning show race, in an NPR segment. Putting aside the question of how much “edge” viewers of the Charmin-soft morning shows can really handle, let’s hope that Lou Dobbs, who says he’s in the vanguard of ‘opinion anchors’ like Olbermann and O’Reilly, doesn’t bring as much edge to CBS as Don Imus and Janet Jackson.

Lou Dobbs and ratings-challenged CNN (I still miss Soledad O’Brian) have finished second again, as Lou Dobbs is only the runner-up (to Fox’s Bill O’Reilly) on Olbermann’s Worst Person in the World.
One of the few tough questions Lesley Stahl asked in a softball 60 Minutes interview with her new CBS colleague Dobb was about why his CNN show reported 7000 cases of leprosy in the last 3 years, with the implication that immigrants had brought leprosy with them.
Olberman gave Dobbs his “worst person” nod for saying, “If we reported it, it’s a fact.” Apparently, 7000 cases of leprosy have been reported in the past 30 years.
