I was listening to Colbert again when I was posting this - and I had Brian Williams on the TV doing exactly what he was talking about!

channel when he came on tonight. I listened to CNN and MSNBC off and on for most of the day and evening and he was the worst. I apparently am not alone with this opinion. I read a post on DU about him and many are in agreement. Too bad it won't effect his ratings...M$M.

And he's repeated late night more than any other show. Rachel used to be repeated at midnight and 4am (ET) and since I watch Colbert, I'd often catch the second repeat - but now Brian Williams is on then as well as at 11 and 2 am.

Just for substituting "Yakety Sax" (the Benny Hill Show theme song) for "Hail to the Chief."

All we need now -- as election day 2020 approaches -- is a video compilation of little donnie's stupid antics (sped up as necessary) with this song in the background. Just to mock him and thereby piss him off.
