Glad I went to bed

Before I went to sleep Sunday, I heard the news about Bin Laden.
As a former newspaper reporter, I knew what was coming - long wait with little additional information.
Mark Steyn watched the speech, and gives his take.
Personally, I would have liked bin Laden’s death to have been announced by whatever lowest-level official was manning the night desk at the Department of Nondescript Bureaucrats, preferably reading it off the back of an envelope. But, if you’re going to put the head of state on TV to announce it himself, it would have been better to have been all brisk and businesslike.
Today and this week are for the aftermath.
