Poor Ted. Replaced by Tapper? A Salon reject?

That's gotta hurt.

If Viacom was smart, they would put the Daily Show into the Nightline spot.

Opposite the Nightline slot? Viacom = CBS.

Nightline began as a nightly roundup of events during the Iran hostage crisis. In those days before most people had cable, we all watched Ted to keep up with the news. It was so popular that they kept the show as a general news show after the crisis was over.

He was yesterday a long time ago. The most contemptible thing I've seen him do was interviewing ex-Vietcong to impugn the integrity of the Swiftees.

'Nightline' apparently came about during the Iran-hostage crisis. I think it was late 70's.

Iran Crisis: America Held Hostage!, circa 11/4/79.
