Worst People in the World segment - has KO changed the format?
I have missed the segment twice this week and I was wondering if Keith has changed it where it isn't nightly anymore. I missed it earlier in the week but just thought I'd zoned out for some reason. Then I watched last night and didn't see the Worst People in the World again.

What's going on? Am I just mindlessly staring at the TV and missing it or has Keith cut back on the naming of these people? I miss seeing O'Lielly, Gibson, Coultergeist et al nightly. It was the one little ray of hope that these asswipes would get their comeuppance from the master.

1. He did that segment this week...
just too much going on so his bosses nixed following Countdown's regular format.

2. Dang. I consider that an important part of the show. Keith needs to
keep up the Worst segment just to watch O'Lielly et al's heads explode.

3. Unfortunately, we must expect more JonBenet tonight.
He was already complaining about it on Dan Patrick's radio show this afternoon.

4. No, He Did It Tonight
I'm not sure whether he skipped it last night, but he did it tonight. O'Leilly was #1.

5. sometimes when there's lots of "other news"
a late breaking story or something pretty serious like a major disaster or lots and lots of real news, things like Oddball and WPITW fall by the wayside. I don't think it's a permanent schedule change, by any means, just a day-to-day juggling of "what do we fit in our X minutes of news tonight?"
