The explanation behind that animated gif -- MK, still huffy about the 6-7 a.m. "walk on water" laughfest, starts the 7-8 a.m. segment about 25 feet further away from the camera, saying "I'm out here where it's 3-4 feet deep." Pretends to extend her paddle into the water like she's marking twain (noticably never straightening the paddle). A man walks through the distant background, as before, the water barely tops his shoes, totally exposing her stupidity.

However, to compound matters, MK then turns the canoe and paddles through the frame while constantly yapping. The momentum carries her far OFFSCREEN -- which in network news is fubar. Kept blabbering the whole time. The whole episode won't go down well for MK with the powers-that-be at NBC.

I did catch that, and was astounded that after the fiasco of the first half hour, Today would again show her out there in the canoe. I have a feeling that she knew how badly her reputation had been damaged by the first segment, and lobbied hard to be allowed out again to "prove" how deep the water really was.

But as you pointed out, that guy walking in the background in water barely up to his ankles gave the game away again. Priceless!

Wondering how bad her career is hurt by this?

Ha ha! Classic.

Thanks for the info!
