Model Kate Upton took one for the team when she “braved the loss of gravity” for a Sports Illustrated bikini shoot. CBS’ Mark Knoller appears … grateful.
But did CNN pick up the story too late?
@markknoller @CNN Part of CNNs problem is this story had been out there for days. by the time a lame EP approves it it's #old news

As a veteran newsman, Knoller weighed in with valuable expertise on the ongoing newsworthiness of Upton’s zero-gravity spread.
@c_cgottlieb @CNN I beg to differ. Kate Upton in Zero Gravity in a bikini is never old news. Interesting science lesson for the kids too.

We’re sorta damned if we do, damned if we don’t here as far as posting images for context. But as Knoller said, it’s science.
