<br />
MSNBC's professional right-wing pundit impressionist Keith Olbermann lit the tree during last night's episode of <em>Countdown</em> while dishing on <a href="http://blogs.orlandosentinel.com/entertainment_tv_tvblog/2009/12/tiger-woods-voicemail-apology-take-story-in-new-direction.html">Tiger Woods' series of trysts</a> with gossip monger Michael Musto like a couple of housewives in a beauty parlor with baritone voice. Olbermann officially ushered in Christmas with a switch that looks like he raided the trash bin after NBC dismantled the <em>Family Feud</em> set. Then without missing a beat, the two jump right back into the Tiger trashing. <br />

<br />
Pundits and TV viewers from up and down the dial are calling out President Obama for airing his big speech on the troop surge in Afghanistan and preempting ABC's airing of the classic Christmas cartoon <em>A Charlie Brown Christmas</em>. If this causes a move for impeachment, I may never awake from my laughter coma. <br />
<br />
Not only was the story the top headline on yesterday morning's <a href="http://drudgereport.com/"><em>Drudge Report</em></a>, but the pundits really jumped in to turn the President into their own personal Scrooge.<p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/12/03/world-goes-nuts-because-the-president-preempts-a-charlie-brown-c/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>World goes nuts because the President preempts A Charlie Brown Christmas</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/12/03/world-goes-nuts-because-the-president-preempts-a-charlie-brown-c/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/19262952/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/12/03/world-goes-nuts-because-the-president-preempts-a-charlie-brown-c/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>abc</category><category>afghanistan</category><category>afghanistan surge</category><category>Afghanistan war</category><category>AfghanistanSurge</category><category>AfghanistanWar</category><category>charlie brown</category><category>charlie brown christmas</category><category>CharlieBrown</category><category>CharlieBrownChristmas</category><category>glenn beck</category><category>Glenn Beck Comedy</category><category>GlennBeck</category><category>GlennBeckComedy</category><category>President Barack Obama</category><category>PresidentBarackObama</category><category>sean hannity</category><category>SeanHannity</category><dc:creator>Danny Gallagher</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 03 Dec 2009 13:02:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>ABC's Charlie Gibson retiring this month</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/12/01/abcs-charlie-gibson-retiring-this-month/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/12/01/abcs-charlie-gibson-retiring-this-month/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/12/01/abcs-charlie-gibson-retiring-this-month/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/news/" rel="tag">News</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/reality-free/" rel="tag">Reality-Free</a></p><img vspace="4" hspace="4" border="0" align="right" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2009/12/charlie_gibson.jpg" alt="" />To the three of you who still watch the news on a regular basis, here's some news you would have seen coming. <br />
<br />
<em>ABC World News'</em> lead anchor <a href="http://www.variety.com/article/VR1118012005.html?categoryid=14&amp;cs=1&amp;ref=verttv">Charlie Gibson has announced his retirement</a>. He will leave the show on Dec. 18 and Diane Sawyer will take over the anchor's chair on Dec. 21. <br />
<br />
He has only been the station's lead news anchor since May of 2006 when he stepped in for Bob Woodruff who sustained injuries from a roadside bomb in Iraq. Woodruff and Elizabeth Vargas replaced <em>World News Tonight</em> anchor Peter Jennings who left due to medical reasons.<p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/12/01/abcs-charlie-gibson-retiring-this-month/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/19260939/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/12/01/abcs-charlie-gibson-retiring-this-month/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>bob woodruff</category><category>BobWoodruff</category><category>charles gibson</category><category>CharlesGibson</category><category>charlie gibson</category><category>CharlieGibson</category><category>diane sawyer</category><category>DianeSawyer</category><category>elizabeth vargas</category><category>ElizabethVargas</category><category>peter jennings</category><category>PeterJennings</category><category>world news tonight</category><category>world news with charles gibson</category><category>WorldNewsTonight</category><category>WorldNewsWithCharlesGibson</category><dc:creator>Danny Gallagher</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 01 Dec 2009 20:01:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>First "Spill" O'Reilly, then ... who?</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/30/first-spill-oreilly-then-who/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/30/first-spill-oreilly-then-who/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/30/first-spill-oreilly-then-who/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/news/" rel="tag">News</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/children/" rel="tag">Children</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/reality-free/" rel="tag">Reality-Free</a></p><img width="200" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="124" border="0" align="right" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2009/11/spill_oreilly.jpg" alt="Spill O'Reilly" />There are a few definitive signs that you have become an icon in television news: getting a <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/11/29/brian-williams-is-the-new-chuck-norris/">blog dedicated solely to your ties</a>, winning an <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/04/24/a-strangely-satisfying-video-of-katie-couric-singing-the-news/">"Auto-Tune the News"</a> award, and bringing the world the hilarious tale of <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/30/meet-paul-linnman-the-reporter-who-covered-the-infamous-explodi/">an exploding whale</a>. <br />
<br />
Last week, Fox News' "No Spin" pundit Bill O'Reilly was cemented into fame when <em>Sesame Street</em> unveiled their <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/26/sesame-street-unveils-new-bill-oreilly-character/">"Spill O'Reilly,"</a> the newest talking head on the "Grouch News Network" that includes such greats as Walter Cranky, Dan Rather-not and Sally Messy Yuckayel. <br />
<br />
This got me thinking...<br />

Just ask TV reporter Paul Linnman who since the dawn of the Internet has been dubbed as the "exploding whale guy." <br />
<br />
He's covered all sorts of amazing stories, people and moments around the world, but his most famous story is one of <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/14/remembering-the-most-famous-exploded-whale-in-tv-history/">a beached whale that Oregon Department of Transportation officials tried to blow up with a ton of dynamite</a>. <br />
<br />
Still, Linnman was nice enough to sit down with me and discuss that infamous day in TV history when the blubber hit the fan (as well as the cameras, a flattened car and about 75 onlookers) for an interview at <a href="http://www.asylum.com/2009/11/25/exploding-whale-video-reporter-looks-back-4-decades-later/">Asylum.com</a>.<p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/30/meet-paul-linnman-the-reporter-who-covered-the-infamous-explodi/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/19259087/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/30/meet-paul-linnman-the-reporter-who-covered-the-infamous-explodi/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>asylum</category><category>asylum australia</category><category>asylum italy</category><category>asylum network</category><category>asylum uk</category><category>AsylumAustralia</category><category>AsylumItaly</category><category>AsylumNetwork</category><category>AsylumUk</category><category>paul linnman</category><category>PaulLinnman</category><category>the exploding whale</category><category>TheExplodingWhale</category><dc:creator>Danny Gallagher</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 30 Nov 2009 21:02:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Sesame Street unveils new Bill O'Reilly character</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/26/sesame-street-unveils-new-bill-oreilly-character/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/26/sesame-street-unveils-new-bill-oreilly-character/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/26/sesame-street-unveils-new-bill-oreilly-character/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/news/" rel="tag">News</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/celebrities/" rel="tag">Celebrities</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/children/" rel="tag">Children</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/reality-free/" rel="tag">Reality-Free</a></p>Remember the brouhaha with <em>Sesame Street</em> over their alleged swipe at <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/06/pbs-ombudsman-criticizes-sesame-street-for-pox-news-joke/">Fox News</a>? <em>Sesame Street</em> has officially extended an olive branch. <br />
<br />
Sherrie Westin, executive vice president of the Sesame Workshop, appeared on <a href="http://news.yahoo.com/s/ynews/20091125/en_ynews/ynews_en1000"><em>The O'Reilly Factor</em></a> to explain the "Pox News" joke and unveil a new character that pays homage to "Papa Bear" as part of the show's long-standing Grouch journalism homages. Just so there's no confusion, the new <em>Sesame Street</em> character is the guy in the suit on the left, not the right, I think. <br />

I'll be enjoying mine with all the usual staples: turkey, cranberries, cornbread stuffing, some weird brown thing my father attempted to make and my Mom's mind-numbingly good meliton dressing. I'm literally chomping at the bit to take that first of 227 bites of homemade turkey. I've gone through three remotes in the last hour. <br />

But I have to come up with something to do after all the food has been ravenously devoured by that wolf pack I call my family. And rather than list 100 reasons for regretting life (because 99 of them would be "Why did I eat that?"), here some things I have to be thankful for instead.<p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/26/what-danny-is-thankful-for/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>What Danny is thankful for</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/26/what-danny-is-thankful-for/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/19253082/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/26/what-danny-is-thankful-for/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>billy west</category><category>BillyWest</category><category>fox news</category><category>fox news channel</category><category>fox newschannel</category><category>FoxNews</category><category>FoxNewsChannel</category><category>futurama</category><category>katey sagal</category><category>KateySagal</category><category>msnbc</category><category>msnbc news</category><category>msnbc.com</category><category>MsnbcNews</category><category>oprah winfrey</category><category>Oprah Winfrey Show</category><category>OprahWinfrey</category><category>OprahWinfreyShow</category><category>Sarah Palin</category><category>sarah palin 2012</category><category>SarahPalin</category><category>SarahPalin2012</category><category>Sons of Anarchy</category><category>sons of anarchy season 2</category><category>SonsOfAnarchy</category><category>SonsOfAnarchySeason2</category><category>the colbert report</category><category>the daily show</category><category>The Daily Show with Jon Stewart</category><category>TheColbertReport</category><category>TheDailyShow</category><category>TheDailyShowWithJonStewart</category><dc:creator>Danny Gallagher</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 26 Nov 2009 11:02:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Oprah's going to take us to Christmas at the White House</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/25/oprahs-going-to-take-us-to-christmas-at-the-white-house/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/25/oprahs-going-to-take-us-to-christmas-at-the-white-house/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/25/oprahs-going-to-take-us-to-christmas-at-the-white-house/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/news/" rel="tag">News</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/oped/" rel="tag">OpEd</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/video/" rel="tag">Video</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/celebrities/" rel="tag">Celebrities</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/reality-free/" rel="tag">Reality-Free</a></p><img width="200" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="228" border="0" align="right" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2009/11/christmaswhitehouse_cover.jpg" alt="christmas_at_the_white_house" />If I had a dollar for all the times I've written about <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/tag/OprahWinfrey/">Oprah Winfrey</a> in the past few weeks, I'd be able to retire. Well, the O is one busy lady. She's just booked another TV program. On Sunday, December 13, ABC will broadcast Christmas at the White House: An Oprah Primetime Special. Set the DVR for 10 p.m. because that's when President Barack Obama will welcome Oprah into America's grandest national house.<br />
<br />
Take that, Barbara Walters! Not so fast with that ascension to the upper echelon, Robin Roberts. Back off, Diane Sawyer. Oprah Winfrey has an 'in' with the First Family and that's why she's going to be visiting the Obamas for a tour of what the holidays are like at the White House.

<em><br />
Saturday Night Live</em> recut the trailer for the apocalyptic schlock-fest during last weekend's <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/22/review-saturday-night-live-joseph-gordon-levitt-dave-matthews/">Joseph-Gordon Levitt episode</a> featuring Sarah Palin as the new president in 2012 and well, just watch it and wait until you see who she picked as her running mate. That grumbling sound in the distance just might have been the apocalypse hungry for action. <br />
<br />
And before all you Palin-ites getting your complaining fingers ready for typing, you should note that this parody video takes a much bigger swipe at the people who claim Palin and her ilk will bring about the end of the world as we know it. Remember that saying "You can't judge a book by its cover"? The same goes for blog posts and comedy sketches, even if they don't technically have "covers." <br />

<br />
Maybe that's because he has to work in the morning. I know if I had to get up every morning at the ass-crack of dawn, I'd be sharping my kitchen knives every night. <br />
<br />
The Today show host and weatherman has written a mystery murder novel titled <a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/tvnewser/nbc/al_rokers_morning_show_murders_a_lot_of_fun_143952.asp"><em>The Morning Show Murders</em></a> about a morning show host who does cooking segments and is suspected of murdering his executive producer. <br />

Is he donating his time in a nearby soup kitchen? Is he taking a long trip to the Bahamas or Cabo San Lucas in order to "find himself"? <br />
<br />
No, he's considering a run for president. <br />
<br />
When asked by a <a href="http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/2009/11/23/2009-11-23_excnn_anchor_lou_dobbs_is_considering_running_for_president_in_2012.html">New York <em>Daily News</em></a> reporter if talks about him considering a 2012 run were just "crazy talk," the former CNN anchor responded with "What's so crazy about that? Golly!" And might I just add a "Jilly-gee-wilikers" for good measure. <br />
<br />
He said he's currently in talks about exploring the possibly for a campaign and said "For the first time, I'm actually listening to some people about politics." Hey, a TV news host actually "listening" to someone.

<br />
Less than a week after Fox News host and conservative pundit <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/13/hannity-gets-caught-by-jon-stewart-and-apologizes/">Sean Hannity</a> apologized for accidentally using the wrong footage from Glenn Beck's "9/12 Rally" as footage for Rep. Michelle Bachmann's "Super Bowl of Freedom" rally, <a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/tvnewser/fnc/fox_news_uses_old_palin_footage_apologizes_143716.asp">the network used the wrong footage in another story</a>. This time, they used the wrong footage for a story on the "crowds" that showed up during Sarah Palin's book tour. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://thinkprogress.org/2009/11/18/fox-crowd-shot-palin/">Think Progress</a>, a blog created by the liberal think tank the Center for American Progress, discovered the footage. The dead giveaway was the "Country First" campaign signs indicating the footage was taken during Palin's campaign run with John McCain back in 2008. The network called the clip mix-up a mistake and issued another apology. Hold on, are we sure that they aired the right apology this time? <br />

Then came the Nixon-Kennedy debate. Now Fox News' Geraldo Rivera continues that great American tradition of the public debate with the Cheech and Chong-Coulter debate. <br />
<br />
It might sound like the world's most lopsided episode of <em>Celebrity Deathmatch</em>, but the world's most famous pot comedy duo squared off against the famed conservative pundit on Rivera's "Geraldo at Large" show recently to discuss the opening of the country's first <a href="http://www.reuters.com/article/newsOne/idUSTRE5AD06O20091114">cannibus club in Portland, Oregon</a> and the legalization of marijuana. Despite the craziness of the casting, they actually have a very frank, civilized and enlightening discussion on the subject. <br />

I noticed that Rachael had Martha sit down and talk and take questions, but Martha got Rachael in the kitchen baking right away with little small talk. The funniest moment came from Rachael's show: when both came out of the elevator, Rachael tried to grab Martha's hand but Martha pulled it away quickly. Ha!<br />
<br />
Anyway, they talked about the so-called "feud" that had been reported everywhere, and both dismissed it. I don't know how you can dismiss something that <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/11/03/martha-shames-rachael-ray-on-air/">Martha herself said on her own show</a> (among <a href="http://www.tmz.com/2006/09/18/rachael-to-martha-out-of-my-kitchen-bee-yotch/">other things</a>) but they said there was no truth to any feud rumors. I wonder what they'll say after Martha's appearance on <a href="http://abcnews.go.com/Nightline/martha-stewart-dishes-empire-prison-rachel-ray-exclusive/story?id=9106551"><em>Nightline</em></a> tomorrow night.<p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/18/ok-maybe-that-martha-stewart-rachael-ray-feud-is-real/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>OK, maybe that Martha Stewart/Rachael Ray feud is real</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/18/ok-maybe-that-martha-stewart-rachael-ray-feud-is-real/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/19244990/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/18/ok-maybe-that-martha-stewart-rachael-ray-feud-is-real/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>abc</category><category>baking</category><category>cooking</category><category>its a good thing</category><category>martha stewart</category><category>martha stewart interview</category><category>nightline</category><category>rachael ray</category><dc:creator>Bob Sassone</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 18 Nov 2009 18:00:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Remembering the most famous exploded whale in TV history</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/14/remembering-the-most-famous-exploded-whale-in-tv-history/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/14/remembering-the-most-famous-exploded-whale-in-tv-history/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/14/remembering-the-most-famous-exploded-whale-in-tv-history/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/news/" rel="tag">News</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/video/" rel="tag">Video</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/reality-free/" rel="tag">Reality-Free</a></p>A lot of Americans mentally record where they were and what they were doing when they first heard that the Berlin Wall had fallen, John F. Kennedy was shot and the Challenger Space Shuttle exploded. But one famous tragedy has remained suspiciously ignored, until now. <br />
<br />
This week marked the 39th anniversary of Oregon's famed "exploding whale," a beached whale that washed up on the shores of Florence, Oregon. Officials exploded it with almost half a ton of dynamite because they couldn't think of another way to remove the sea creature from the beach. We know go to reporter Paul Linnman who was live at the scene...<br />

This time, he's not the interviewer. He's the interviewee. <br />
<br />
Dobbs will appear as a guest on Monday's episode of <a href="http://www.variety.com/article/VR1118011309.html?categoryid=14&amp;cs=1&amp;ref=verttv"><em>The O'Reilly Factor</em></a> where host Bill O'Reilly will grill the former CNN talking head on his sudden departure from his previous employer, his future career options and his never-ending quest to battle the invading armies of the Mexican empire aka illegal-immigrants. <br />
<br />
Of course, the timing could not be worse. His appearance should only "fuel speculation" that Dobbs has scored a job at the Fox News Channel. The network's PR team continued to deny such speculation, something they'll continue to do until he scores a job at the Fox News Channel.<p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/13/dobbs-will-appear-on-oreilly-factor-as-a-guest/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/19239329/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/13/dobbs-will-appear-on-oreilly-factor-as-a-guest/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>bill oreilly</category><category>BillOreilly</category><category>cnn</category><category>fox news channel</category><category>FoxNewsChannel</category><category>Lou Dobbs</category><category>Lou Dobbs Leaving CNN</category><category>Lou Dobbs Tonight</category><category>LouDobbs</category><category>LouDobbsLeavingCnn</category><category>LouDobbsTonight</category><category>the oreilly factor</category><category>TheOreillyFactor</category><dc:creator>Danny Gallagher</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 13 Nov 2009 20:30:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Did Cusack cuss?</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/13/did-cusack-cuss/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/13/did-cusack-cuss/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/11/13/did-cusack-cuss/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/news/" rel="tag">News</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/video/" rel="tag">Video</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/reality-free/" rel="tag">Reality-Free</a></p>Hey guys, remember when you were a kid and you really wanted to see a boobie but your parents had Cinemax blocked and your house did not yet have the ability to magically access the bottomless reservoir of nudity on the Internet? Your mind would do whatever it could to see a boobie. It would trick you into thinking two conveniently placed melons were boobies. It would make you think that the Calgon commercial accidentally showed a boobie. It would get you to watch every episode of <em>Benny Hill</em> with the hope of seeing a boobie. <br />
<br />
That's how I feel of this recent news post at <a href="http://newsbusters.org/blogs/noel-sheppard/2009/11/12/john-cusack-drops-f-bomb-early-show">Newsbusters</a> that claims <em>2012</em> star John Cusack uttered a rather nasty word on a recent episode of <em>The Early Show</em>. And no, it wasn't boobie. <br />
<br />
Maybe it's just my hearing. Can you hear the word? It's supposed be towards the end of the video after host Harry Smith asks Cusack "Does it seems like 20 years ago already?" in reference to the 20 year anniversary of his classic film <em>Say Anything</em>. <br />

Once again people, I'm forced to ask the obvious question: what the hell is going on here? Have we crossed over into the bizarro world? Is up now down? Has black become white? Did Lou Dobbs just announce that he's leaving CNN to take over the host chair of G4's <em>Attack of the Show</em>? <br />
