  5. If you can’t dazzle them with brilliance then baffle them with BS.

  6. You are kidding me? Hannity and Colmes started out with a graphic saying it was a Paris free hour!!

  7. Let’s not knock CNN for this. Had NBC gotten that interview, MSNBC would have been promo’ing the hell out of it, just as Fox would had they landed it. And let’s not kid ourselves here, they all wanted it. America is obsessed with celebs, always has been, always will be.

  8. Greta cited the interview last night, stating that it’s one that everyone wanted but would not admit to.

  9. I just HAD to see this lame countdown clock! Problem is, when I turned on during PZ there was no clock in sight.

  10. I feel bad for Paula seeing that caption under her name in the above picture. Of all the stories she must have covered last night, it’s unfortunate that it was that caption under her name that was captured!

  12. I think one reason CNN is being knocked so much is because of Jon Klein’s comments about how they aren’t into that sort of thing.

  13. television, including cable news, is into ratings, period…end of discussion…let’s see what LK’s numbers are….CNN got alot of hype and publicity for this interview…reviews in the NY Times, Variety, etc….the numbers will probably be huge, and there’ll be a big ‘bump’ for AC’s numbers, as well. And that’s what it’s all about….
