Well, I watched Oliver's segment. I guess if you're into joking about people who accuse the parents of murdered children of being actors, then -- sure -- this is a hoot. I am glad Oliver didn't interview Jones, but Jones is the sort of narcissist who gets off on any mention of himself, and Oliver

Steve I think you have missed the point that was being made in criticizing Kelly. It was often said that if she wanted to expose him as a fraud that might be worthwhile journalism, but giving him a platform on which to normalize himself as simply one voice among a continuum of perspectives was

Kelly continues to drop in the ratings. I still think NBC doesn't care and the whole show is to build her name for The Today Show in the fall. I was going to watch last night because she seemed to have non-political stories, but it turned out Jake Johannsen was at the local Improv, so I went
