What Is Early Word? The Philadelphia Inquirer's experimental online "morning show", which began in Sept. 2005, went on hiatus in the summer of 2006, after a gradual shift to putting more of its content directly on Philly.com.
About the Host Peter Mucha, husband and father of two, grew up in Cherry Hill and is a lifelong Philly sports fan. He's been writing and editing for The Inquirer for 18 years.
His motto (at least for today): "If I'm not brief, give me grief."

Phanatic Turns Red!
No, he wasn't blushing from being near WPVI percolator Karen Rogers this morning. Yesterday he got dipped in a vat at the zoo and came out a shade of Phillies red, kicking off the team's Paint the Town Red week. WPVI-TV has lots of videos of the mascot's morning antics, and the Phillies have a schedule of events. Tomorrow morning, he'll give blood at Citizens Bank Park, kicking off a drive.
