Just for the record, today's report placed the suit problem and the 'water' in proper context, but with a few secondary garbles creeping in.
NBC TODAY, Dec 23, 2013, segment aired approx. 08:03 AM EST
And an emergency spacewalk originally scheduled for today was postponed until tomorrow because of a problem with a spacesuit. NASA said American astronaut Rick Mastracchio accidentally turned on a water switch during Saturday's spacewalk, compromising his suit. He will need an extra day to get a spare space suit ready to go. Mastracchio and fellow astronaut Michael Hopkins are expected to complete the repair on a leaking coolant line onboard the international space station.

Thankfully CBS finally called in Bill Harwood (at 0300ish) to give an accurate, detailed update on the EVAs and the issues so far. They did go cheap and do the interview via Skype instead via satellite but it was a relief to finally see one, well two with JimO
, get the story right.
