The Streak Continues...

Get your mind out of the gutter...I'm not writing about THAT type of streaking...

I am writing about our news coverage on Monday. Our 11pm newscast continued the comprehensive coverage we had on the Sean Taylor story.

Bruce Leshan reported live from Miami, Florida to give our viewers the most up to date progress report on Sean. Brittany Morehouse interviewed fans and got their reaction at a local bar. To wrap things up, Sara Walsh took over the story from Redskins Park to get the perspective from the Redskins themselves.

Adding to that, we had Jeff Napshin live from a hit and run accident in Gaithersburg, Maryland and an intriguing story from Gary Reals. It dealt with what happens when a police office is forced to shoot a suspect and the aftermath of that and the counseling that the officer goes through.

We had a broadcast full of critical news this evening. In terms of our Redskins coverage, there's no doubt in my mind that 9News Now had the most inclusive coverage on the day's events, which served as a benefit to all Redskins fans concerned about Sean Taylor's condition.
