Clarissa Ward's reporting from Syria is beyond extraordinary. Edward R. Murrow would be proud. Thank you, Ms. Ward, for your investigative skills, your clear and concise reporting, and your obvious compassion. Above all, thanks for your astounding courage.

During your segment last night on home heating bills, you spoke of a Vietnam Vet with cancer who was suffering the cold because he could not afford heat. I am having a hard time wrapping my mind around the fact that the VA here in Sioux Falls, SD is sending vets and either a care giver or a family member on an all expense paid African safari in March. Since when does morale take precedence over basic needs. This is not the first tip of it's kind and this is only one VA.

I just saw the piece on the Evening News about the Pfizer birth control pill recall. Scott Pelley reported that there is a packaging flaw which "poses no health risk" but which could result in unintended pregnancies. No health risk? Are you kidding?? Pregnancy itself is a major health risk, just ask any physician or any woman who has been pregnant. Scott Pelley owes women an apology for asserting that a pregnancy resulting from Pfizer's error is of little consequence. He should be embarrassed.I had not missed Katie Couric until tonight; no woman would have made this monumentally dumb statement.

I just watched the article on home foreclosures in FT myers FL.
I do sympathize with those affected. However I have an issue about the person interviewed
The article stated the lady had purchased the house for over $300,000 and her annual salary was just over $50,000.
HOW DID A PERSON EARNING ONLY 50K EVER GET FINANCED FOR 300K?
the payment on 300k is at least $3000 multiplied by 12 the lady would spent her entire paycheck just for the minimunm payment.
THAT MAKES NO SENSE AT ALL

Maurice DuBois is awsome!

Mr Pelley, your story on the CSS Hunley was fascinating to say the least except the comment made by South Carolina State Senator Glen McConnell that the CSS Hunley was the first submarine in combat service in the civil was is wrong, the CSS Manassas was the first civil war submarine and is still intact somewhere under the ocean as her crew scuttled her and sank her.

thank you for a great news program. Karl

When I search on evening news simulcast on the internet I got many, many hits for CBS Evening News being live streamed simulcast on the CBS Evening News website. I have searched everywhere and did not find the link. Also found you on UStream and it was not working, just a live shot from a webcam of the Capitol. Please put the link prominently on the site so I don't have to wait several hours to see it as a full episode in video BTW you are the only evening news to live stream or video cast a full episode on the same day, so kudos and thanks from a laid-off recessionista who got rid of her cable bill.

Last night (Jan 2) Scott Pelley, commenting on an indistinct remark by Santorum about black welfare, reported that "only" 9% of welfare recipients in Iowa are black while over 80% are white. In slanting the news, what he failed to mention is that only 2.9% of the population in Iowa is black.

You should report on the story currently on Yahoo by Chris Moody about the GOP schooling its politicians on what choice of words they should use in responding to constituents on issues. Words like "compromise, entrepreneurs, capitalism, taxes" are out. It is incredible news reporting on a subject that mainstream America should have delivered to their living rooms. If the Democrats are caught engaging in Newspeak lessons down the road, do that story too

[mjhawkeye]

Scott: Why was it, as moderator of the recent GOP Debate you felt it necessary to argue with the candidates. As I understand the process, you ask the questions, the candidates answer and the audience uses this info to make a decision on whether or not we support a candidate. Wise up and stop being so arrogant.
