poor TV coverage
"at this very hour, the shuttle is crossing the Pacific Ocean heading
toward the West Coast" -- heard on tv news at 17:33 PST.
Do they mean at this very minute, or at 17:00 or 18:00, or do they
expect us to believe what they literally said, that for a solid hour the
shuttle is over the Pacific Ocean the whole time?
P.s. this station (KGO tv, channel 7) has such crummy news that I
avoid it except they have the only 5pm news so I was sort of stuck
with it. (A few nights ago they said something about an elephant
getting a gift from the tooth fairy. But this is SPACE so I'll drop
that issue.)

Is there any really good coverage of the shuttle on TV other than
occasional special coverage on ABC Nightline?
