Does anyone here watch the ABC News podcast? I've been watching it religiously for months now. It's right up there with The Daily Nut in terms of favorite podcast.

Now from the beginning, ABC has used a rotation of anchors to deliver the news, and their sign-off has always been Thanks for watching, and click on us again tomorrow. Then, Charles Gibson took over as anchor about a month ago, and being new to the whole interweb thing, he signed off with click US ON again tomorrow. About a week into his tenure, he corrected himself and said click ON US, and then went back to his old habit TWO DAYS LATER. It was a power thing, or something. Like he was saying, Screw you twenty-somethings...I'm Chuck-motherfucking-Gibson, and I'll say click us on if I want to say click us on. Kinda like the Good Morning America version of Make My Day.

So I was watching the podcast this morning, and Mr. Gibson stated his usual click us on and then CORRECTED HIMSELF, and said click on us. WHAT??? Was there a letter-writing campaign? Did chuck give in to the pressure? Is there nothing to believe in anymore?

Anyway, my world is shattered. Send us an an email if you know what really happened. And click us on again tomorrow.

If someone designs it, I'll e-mail it to ABC.
