As they continue onward with their SIDE-SPLITTING HILARITY, we see the EDWARD R. MURROW OF COMEDY allegedly drew 2 million viewers last Wednesday, and the ERIC SEVAREID OF COMEDY 1.5 million. The news hacks love regaling themselves with their importance, especially as they see a kind of idealized image in the mirror, HIP and truth-telling at once; but 2 million (and surely it's not always 2 million) is a fraction of the 24 million or more who watch the Big 3 squares, and while they may use denture adhesive and incontinence aids and may not learn the truth, at least they aren't HIP.
