And I am sure this had Matt and the Today show producers peeing their pants, last thing they expected to hear from the NYT.
I saw this interview and was totally surprised. I couldn't help but think that maybe, just maybe, Mr. Burns' words would "wake up" the Lauers of the world, and maybe Lauer himself.
Not sure about that; Burns is a pretty known quantity in terms of his views. And Matt was definitely not trying to counter or second guess him.
