It has been reported that either Senator Bird or Kennedy has collapsed, but CNN is receiving conflicting reports.

And that's why media often needs to simma-down and take a second to check and double check.  I hope Teddy's ok.

Yeah, I think they jumped to conclusions because Byrd was too frail/tired to stand when Obama entered the room.

Well, the man is 197 years old. Brian Williams on NBC (incidentally the only channel I can get on AFN right now) just corrected the mistake.

Hmmm...I wonder if Kennedy has recurrent tumor? They supposedly resected it all, but it's just a matter of time before it comes back. Pts like him rarely make it more than a year.
