'Washington Unplugged' Unleashed

By
CBSNews
(CBS)  CBSNews.com will debuts a new, Web-only show, "Washington Unplugged," moderated by Face the Nation's Bob Schieffer.

(CBS)
The hard-hitting, politics-centered show will appear every Friday and showcase CBS News' brightest commentators and correspondents. The fifteen-minute program will feature straight talk from a newsmaker, a discussion of the week in politics, and in depth analysis of issues affecting the new administration.

The show, airing on CBSNews.com and Politico.com, will include weekly roundtable interviews, Web original pieces and thoughtful, provocative, commentary.

"We'll focus on the news but will try to make it lively and entertaining," Schieffer explained. "And we will aim to get at some of the things that tell you how Washington really works -- some of the things that don't always make it into our broadcasts."

We hope "Washington Unplugged" will get out ahead on the week's news before the Sunday talk shows.

To check it out, tune in at 2 p.m. ET on Fridays. Click below to watch the first webcast:

If the GOP knows that this plan will not work, then way not come up with a better plan. Mr.Obama said that if the GOP had a better way then his then he would like
to use it.

Liberal media is tired of all the public spankings about how they''ve tipped from being openly biased against Republicans to openly activists for Democrats. One thing to be accused of being biased....whole different thing to be caught being an activist...considering journalism is supposed to be the watch dog of any thing political...yeah right. That when down the drain with Hearst. Oh well....so long as 52% of the people can be played they have nothing to worry about.

Hard hitting and right to the point...from a liberal perspective, of course, and only what would make Obama beam with parental pride. Can''t wait...tingly.
