Tonight! On AC360 (21/09)
1. John Edwards is the top story tonight? Nice.
NY Times are saying that Edwards is going to confirm that the kid? Is his.
I should point out? Anderson totally doesn't approve of this.
ETA: Joe Johns joins us with the Raw Politics.
Apparently a lot of this has come out of a possible book from a former Edwards staffer.
ETA2: Now Anderson interviews a woman, a friend of the affair lady, and...no, fuck off, oh America, the things you call your children. Pigeon? Really?
ETA3: They went to break before Miss Pigeon O'Brien. Oooh - we come back with Anderson: I want to point out that we did ask John Edwards to come on this program, but he refused. We wanted to get his side of the story.
Haha. Anderson: What did she see in him? - Oh, Anderson, not a fan of John Edwards?
*sighs* This is not *~*investigative journalism*~* Anderpants. You're asking Pigeon (seriously, you guys - you guys, seriously, I can't even) about nicknames? Although - hahahaha, Lovelips? Hahahahaha.
ETA4: David Gergen and Sunny Hustin. (Sunny, now? Oh, man, this is a night for names. She is hot, though. Haha. Hot. Sun. No? I'll get my coat...)
David calls it tawdry (that is so a word that needs to be used more often) and illuminates that if Edwards had won in Iowa we would've lost Obama and, well, I'd be different person and America would be a different country, I suspect.
Sunny is here to talk about legal perspectives. About what Edwards could suffer should the misuse of campaign funds stuff come through.
2. Erica's Bulletin: Georgia is flooding like whoa, you guys, it's insane, five deaths :(. H1N1 vaccine is going well in children. Obama gets stuck into to banks, again. Two guys that have worked together for years - look alike and turn out to be brothers.
That's an awesome story. Anderson thinks it's awesome too.
3. Afghanistan! Tonight's discussion will be about that leaked memo, I suspect.
Anderson takes an opportunity to show his On Patrol report again. From the Live From the Battle Front week.
ETA: Digging Deeper with Peter Bergen, Rory Stewart (who is British!) and Michael Ware.
A lot of what they're saying here is familiar. Ground we've been treading a lot these past weeks.
ETA2: Oh, Gods, I love you Michael Ware. Michael: What does Al Qaeda have to do with the War in Afghanistan? That haven't been in Afghanistan since the invasion. You've essentially got an eight year war against Afghanis for Afghanis.

4. Garrido. And his, um, God Box. I've been waiting for this all weekend!!1!! /sarcasm
Dan Simon tells us more. You know. Stuff.
5. The Georgia Flooding is pretty horrific. But allow me a brief moment of levity for David Mattingly standing up to his mid-thigh in the floodwater. Truly a marvellous human dipstick.
Wow. This is. He just threw a bottle in the water to show how fast it's moving. This is some lo-fi flood reporting. I don't think he's even wearing waders.
6. Tonight's Shot: is from the footage of MJ rehearsing.
(Ooh, snap, Andy - wondering aloud if he was lip-synching)
