Here was The Late Show with David Letterman's Top Ten List last night (March 1)
Notice number 8.
Top Ten Other Changes At CNN
10. Wolf Blitzer changing name to Blitz Wolfer.
9. When covering a hard story, reporters ask, "What would Jack Daniels do?"
8. Every Sunday it's "WKRP in Cincinnati" marathons!
7. Reporters must make quotation marks with fingers when calling Bush "President".
6. They're putting Lou Dobbs on steriods.
5. Every night, one lucky viewer receives an on-air physical from Dr. Sanjay Gupta.
4. Last 10 minutes of newscasts achors sing hits from the 70s, 80s, 90s and today.
3. Let's just say Paula Zahn is now Paul Zahn.
2. Changing name to CNNN.
1. Interactive feature allows viewers to administer painful electric shock to
Larry King.
Not sure I understand the reference in regard to CNN, but hey, free publicity is good. I'm sure it got a lot of people remembering the WKRP and saying to themselves, "I used to love that show."
I hope to see more WKRP mentions in the media!
