CNN host worried about nation's 'focus' after Jeopardy contestants don't know Russia question

Great. You sent me down the rabbit hole of SNL "Celebrity Jeopardy" videos on Youtube.

Damn, those were funny!

[Terry Mross]

Alex Trebeck: The category is Your Name.

Sean Connery: Trebeck is a son of a bitch.

[Trillian]

The only places I’ve seen it on is in airports and doctors offices. Now i’m just seeing house fix it up shows. No one is paying attention, even if it’s on.

I bet Wolf Blitzer is wishing they wouldn’t bring up Jeopardy.

I'll take Embarrassing Defeat for $4,600, Alex.

"Only the smartest of the smart get to be on Jeopardy, right?" King asked. "So what does this little exchange last night say about the nation's focus, or lack thereof, on the whole [Robert] Mueller Russia meddling and collusion investigation?"

There's the matter of how smart you are, which goes toward figuring out what kind of answer they want, and there's a very different matter of what you know, which is knowing the answer itself.

Let's recall the brief national laugh we had a few months ago when all three high-dollar players had absolutely no clue to any of the five questions in the Football category. That was indeed a "lack of focus", but clearly was not indicative of "the nation's focus".

That said, I am in full agreement with other posters here that the public's ignorance of the meager fruits of FBI's witch hunt, despite CNN's exhaustive efforts, indicates the correct "focus", although I would not argue that it would be better if more people knew that precious few results have been produced thus far.

I didn’t know it when the question was asked. I guess that’s because Flynn wasn’t really guilty of anything, except not being able to afford the lawyers to defend himself.

“Mediot assholes for $100, Alex.”

[SunStar]

CNN: “The Boy Who Cried Wolf”.

[Steely Tom]

Nobody g.a.s. for $800, Alex.

I was going to use that pic with the quote.

"Only the smartest of the smart get to be on Jeopardy, right?"

and then add well not always

[Ikeon]

At this point what does it matter?!!!

[arrogantsob]

More than one, I think it was three.

[Flick Lives]

Witch hunt for $100, Alex.

[Rebelbase]

Is that Andy Richter on the right?

[Savage Beast]

Yes, I have noticed that Jeopardy phrases questions to push the Leftist narrative and agenda. It is very irritating. They just can’t resist turning everything into agitprop.

[A_Former_Democrat]

On tonight’s Jeopardy:

Contestant: Let’s try Fake News for a thousand

A: John King

Contestants: (Silence)

Alex. Who is cnn’s biggest idiot?

CNN...where nobody knows your name

[blueplum]

maybe the contestants were smart enough to realize Jeopardy staff was trying to politicize Jeopardy?

[KarlInOhio]

Is that Andy Richter on the right?

Yes it is. Here's the J-Archive site for all the answers and questions from that match.

I bet Wolf Blitzer is wishing they wouldn’t bring up Jeopardy.
