8. I did see it. Pure Keef goodness.
Very snarky and dead on target. I'm hoping the execs at CBS will get desperate enough about their ratings situation that they'll be willing to throw away all the old traditions and go snap up Keith post-haste. I'd love to see him get the additional exposure that would come with being on broadcast television. Yes, there would be the FCC standards to consider, but Keith implies things rather than stating them outright so I don't think the standards would be an impossible barrier for him. I'm more worried that they'll want him to make the news either dumber or blander or both, and that's sure to stick in his craw. He's managed to build an audience where he is without going either dumb or bland; that should tell the suits something.
