Well if you can't get Anderson Cooper...

....Pee Wee Herman seems like the next logical choice.​

Al Roker Visits White House without Crapping Himself

Sometimes, it's the little things that count.​

Today, NBC Al Roker visited the White House and we're happy to report, he didn't shit his pants.​

Back in January, while pimping his new book, Roker admitted that he "pooped his pants" while visiting the WH. This happened after suffering some complications from surgery he had to help him lose weight.

This time Roker was in DC to help out in the White House Easter egg roll and is underwear stayed (basically) clean. 

The most hated man in America, Matt Lauer was back at 30 Rock interviewing Chris Brown...the second most hated man in America.​

No word if Lauer crapped his pants during the interview. ​

OK... Yes the Brian Williams Story was a Joke (but many of you fell for it)

FTVLive's story this morning that NBC Anchor Brian Williams was going to co-host the Today Show and anchor NBC Nightly News ​for the May book was our entry into the April Fools joke pool.

We thought that it was fairly clear after the first paragraph ​or so that it was a joke. 

I mean, dropping Lauer off in the middle of Afghanistan ​with no crew or no money isn't something NBC would do.

Wait....maybe it is.

OK..... theAl Roker hiding Twinkie's and HoHo's is totally believable, but Hoda and Kathie Lee hiding the hard liquor in a cubby in Studio 1A? Everyone knows that the booze is locked up in their dressing room.

CNN to Run their Own Version of "The Five"

If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, then Fox News should be really flattered. ​

CNN ready to do a knock-of FNC's "The Five" but without the Right Wingers. 

The show will be called "(Get To) The Point" and will replace the 10:00 p.m. rerun of Anderson Cooper's show, "AC360."​

The panelist on the new show will be Margaret Hoover, Donny Deutsch, Rick Reilly, Jason Taylor and others.

​CNN claims "(Get To) The Point" is just a temporary show to fill some holes while they work in their new schedule. 

Obviously if it shows any ratings ​life at all, look for it to find a spot on the schedule.

"It is with mixed emotions that I announce today that this starts my last few weeks here in Alabama. I have accepted a Meteorologist position at the NBC Station KSHB in Kansas City, Missouri. I'm VERY excited for the new opportunity and to be covering snow again. I will miss everyone that has made an impact on my life over the past 3 years. I've shared more with all of you than most do in a short time frame. We all went through April 27, 2011 together and triumph through the hardship. I will always hold a special place for all of you. My soon to be Hubby is from Birmingham, so I'll be back not only for our wedding, but for holidays. My last day will be mid-April. Thank you for welcoming me into your homes over the years."
