I will not be blogging on tonight's Presidential Debates, because no matter how quickly I do so I will still have been thoroughly scooped by the Boston Globe and the Associated Press. They both have already reported that the debate covered topics like the political importance of Florida's recent weather, and that "[t]he debate's focus on Iraq was sharpened by bombings in Baghdad Thursday that killed three dozen children."

UPDATE: Both links are now down. Apparently the media has realized that the already-blatant manufacturing of news will become even more impossible to deny if they release stories about events that have yet to occur.
