BTW, Kilborn and his "writing" staff did get in a little trouble for their so-called joke. The Secret Service paid them a little visit and said "If you do it again, we will arrest you." In addition, CBS brass said "If you ever do it again, it'll be your final broadcast."

They haven't done anything of the sort since.

Thank you so much! I knew it wasn't on Leno or Letterman, and the only other late night talk show host I could think of was Conan O'Brian.

My apologies to Conan. ;o)

I'm very glad to hear there were reprecussions, not just from the Secret Service, but from CBS, as well.

BTW, I don't know why in the world I didn't think to ask you about this. I know that in the world of the media, you are all knowing. ;o)
