I didn't know how rich Allen was until he tried to buy a sports team. I guess these dumb interview things he did in the past were done through his production company & syndication. I've never minded the guy (what little I know about him anyway).

But THIS is the replacement? & Weiss wants to revamp 60 Minutes into a sh*tshow? That network is going to be going in the tank at record speed.
