That was an entertaining show;
“On a scale of one to ten, ten being metaphysical certitude...”

Novak and Germond were my favorites, actual reporters, not pretty boy anchors.

Always pictured Germond at the track, nose in the racing form, cigar in his mouth, a flask in his pocket.

Great moment involving Jack Germond. In discussing state of the union speeches, he said they don’t really matter. “It’s like urinating in your dark blue pants. You feel warm but nobody else knows or cares.”
Panelist: “Jack, are you speaking from personal experience?”
