56. Two comments:
1. I don't believe him.

2. His being at a baseball game, while entirely believable, is a lame excuse for ignoring the story. If there was a major earthquake on the West Coast, or someone (God forbid) took a shot at Obama, or a plane crashed in Texas and 300 people died, would he have ignored that? "I'm sorry, I was at a baseball game."

No, this doesn't fly. Especially when you consider the times he's taken Billo and others to task for not calling out their own networks. And it's not as if he didn't have time last night to talk about it. He could have skipped that whole "Worst Person of the Week" crap for this. I can't believe he's going back to that well. It didn't work with Oddball and it won't work with this.

I will be watching his Monday show with bated breath. Because by then, I expect there to be a lot more talk about this, and for Keith to look even more bizarre by remaining silent, if he chooses to do so.
