Cynopsis

08/17/06

Good morning. It’s Thursday, August 17, 2006, and this is your first early morning briefing.

Following the abduction of two Fox News crew on Monday, there has been no word from any faction taking credit for the kidnapping and/or making demands in exchange for their return.  Steve Centanni and cameraman Olaf Wiig were taken when their marked TV news vehicle was blocked by two other cars, and then an armed masked man took away Centanni and Wiig.  Since then the New Zealand ambassador to Israel and Turkey has met with the Palestine President, and US consulate officials are also working with the Palestinian officials toward identifying the captors and locating the newsmen. Palestine officials say they have no firm leads.  Olaf Wiig’s wife, Anita McNaught made a formal plea on Palestinian and Israel TV for her husband’s and Centanni’s safe return, saying “[These men] are friends of the Palestinians. They are here telling the Palestinian story for weeks now, when the rest of the world’s media has not been here.”

NBC:  America’s Got Talent at 9p
MTV:  Run’s House at 930p
FX:     It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia at 10p

Tonight’s Premiere:
Spike:  The Ultimate Fighter at 10p
