Have you ever been so smitten by a TV show host that your toes curl? Well, that's the emotional position I found myself in last night when I finally was able to watch the end of ...."The Daily". Tears hung in the air.... and on my cheeks, and the cheeks of all the viewers and the live audience. Tears hung in the corner of the eyes of the camera crew, the behind the scenes crew, the correspondents. And tears of course, from Jon himself... brought on at first by an unscripted, gut retching "thanks" to Jon that only Stephen Colbert could pull off.
Many more tears to follow. A wonderful video showing the backstage crew in all their humourous wonder. Pan to camera 3... on to Jon's final monologue. "Bullshit is everywhere.... and vigilance is our best defence against bullshit. So if you smell something, say something". Jon's anti-bullshit vaccine should serve us well for many years to come.
So.... Bullshit, smell is, call it. Thanks Jon. (sniff)
