I’m sure they were taken totally off guard.
For all that Fonda isn’t, she is a professional, at least gave the impression beforehand.
What will these programs start doing now? 5 second delays? Taped interviews?
IMHO, I think she has PO-ed the network leadership.
That's why there's such a thing as a dump button :) Someone I talked to who saw the show this morning caught the segment, but didn't hear Fonda say the word. Did local affiliates have the ability to hit the dump button? If so, what's with the network? Was someone asleep at the switch, or doesn't NBC have the show on a five second delay?
