Intern Field Trip! Behind The Scenes At The Today Show
Internships are usually about working ridiculous hours and learning how to prepare a killer expense report. But here at Mediaite, we’re lucky enough to have bosses that don’t know what a fly-on-the-wall mentality is. Our tasks often include roaming the streets of New York, reinventing data entry, and now, going on field trips! In the name of bringing you all things media, we recently snuck backstage at the Today Show with Dan Abrams, NBC Senior Legal Analyst and Mediaite publisher. Below is a short video with some highlights. Not shown: holding each others’ hands as we crossed the road, eating our brown paper bag lunch, and using inside voices.
Three final points:
- • Dan Abrams had no editorial control over the content of this video, except to the extent that he sang.
• This explains the penguins.

CNN’s John King, USA Premieres On Web With Rehearsal Show
There are two very distinct things to note about the way CNN has introduced the upcoming 7pmET show John King, USA to its audience - the show itself and the way it happened. John King hosted a trial run of the program today on CNN.com/live, which gave a sneak peek at what the show will be, but also gave viewers a chance to give their take on the first look.
