News at Eleven: Last night was the Poets House's annual

poetry reading across Brooklyn Bridge, and what a night it was. As expected, Bill Murray stole the show as the consummate professional poetry-reader, not to mention gracious host and super-fast walker (he blew by me halfway across the bridge and never looked back.)

It was all very romantic--just don't ask him to name his favorite poet: "Uh, wow, that's a really hard one," he said. "I don't know. It'd be like trying to pick your favorite golf course--it's just whatever's right for the moment, you know?"
