If you ever wondered what a actual 5-10 minute News Interview is supposed to be like, catch the replay at 1:00am!

And please note that the interview is BEFORE the first break for some odd reason.

Plus, the first 5 minutes was pretty funny too. :evilgrin:

7. As I watched it, I said to myself "This is the most civilized show on TV".
But then that is why I've watched every single show from the very beginning.

I also noted that Mr. Allawi came onto the set earlier than almost any other guest, ever. It was Jon's way of stating the importance, and giving respect where there is otherwise none.

And he tied into the shooting massacre in a tasteful and meaningful way.

It's my sanity, that show.
