"On NBC Tom Brokaw and Katie Couric were side-by-each at the desk reporting on the freedom of Iraq this morning. Tom informed the viewers and Katie that he had to "bail out and go to a studio across the street".
Katie responded, "was it something I said?"
Tom replies, "where do I begin."
Katie: "ouch"

Meanwhile, over on CNN, Wolf Blitzer got snookered by one of Howard Stern's guys. Wolfie had put a guy on the air whom Wolf THOUGHT was in Baghdad. The guy finished up by saying, "There's even some talk here, Wolf, of replacing the Iraqi Information Minister with Howard Stern."

Wolfie turned crimson, stammeered out something along the lines of "we've lost that connection," and then flipped it to "I'm So Poor" and ducked into the john to vomit.

Happened about a half-hour ago.
