1. Well, it ain't CSPAN's fault--even though Steve Scully had the gavel, that was just coincidence
It's the association itself, the WHC, that put the shindig on. CSPAN just covered it. As they do.

It did stink, though. The Letterman video was the highlight of the evening.

But hell, Rich Little is an old man. An inoffensive, old man. Back in the days of the Flip Wilson Show, and the Smothers Brothers, and Laugh In, he was considered fairly "cutting edge." At least for TV of the era...but hey, he's old now. I had to notice that there were more than a few Barbie Dolls in the audience with completely clueless expressions--I ascribe that to not knowing history, but who knows, it could have been botox overdoses...
