Soundbite: Le President Du CBS


Leslie Moonves“When I see Les Moonves’ name in print, I’ll often read the first word as the French ‘les’ and then wonder “what the hell is a ‘moonve’”?”

Slate movie critic Dana Stevens on Twitter, causing me to almost spit up my morning Diet Coke. I feel the same way about Hervé Weinstein.

The Seven Best (Or, Somewhat Memorable) Moments Of The Jay Leno Show

video

After 95 episodes, the epic failure known as The Jay Leno Show airs its final episode tonight. Of course, Leno himself will be back after the Olympics, comfortably at 11:35pm all over again. Which was pretty much the problem to begin with - the 10pm offering started as a similar product to the Tonight Show, and only became more like the old format as time went on.

Stephen Colbert: ‘Sarah Palin is a F***king Retard’

The usually reliable Keith Olbermann's inability to nail Rush Limbaugh and Sarah Palin on Limbaugh's use of the term "retard" has been pretty frustrating. Sure, he has posited Palin as a hypocrite, but several times he has repeated Rush's and Palin's dueling assertions that he was "quoting" Rahm Emanuel, or that he was being "satirical," without really challenging it. Luckily, Stephen Colbert actually knows what the word "satire" means, and deployed a pile of it on Palin and Rush last night.
