The most buzzed about commercial during the CBS broadcast of the Super Bowl? The 15 second promo for Late Night with David Letterman that featured David Letterman, Oprah and Jay Leno.

Glenn Beck: Obama Is Like ‘A Real Housewife…At A Louis Vuitton Sample Sale’
Glenn Beck opened his show today with a quick review of two of last night's most talked-about Super Bowl ads. Namely, Tim Tebow and Betty White. But the ad that really got under Beck's skin was the $2.5 million Census advertisement paid for by the U.S. government. Money wasted!

Daily Kos Blogger: If You Don’t Believe Our Polls, You’re Probably a Racist
Apparently, Daily Kos blogger Dante Atkins did not appreciate being reminded that his website was one of the few to predict a Martha Coakley victory in Massachusetts a few weeks ago, or being called insane, or dangerous, or, worst of all, insignificant.

NBC Anticipates Olympian Loss Of Cash In Vancouver
NBC had been counting on the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics to defibrillate its faltering ratings and break the pattern of myopia and ineptitude, culminating in the Late Night Wars, that has marked Jeff Zucker’s tenure as CEO.
