C-Block (20:50) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL:
- 17 years ago this week we found out president Rick Kaplan of MSNBC didn’t have cable, and was still congratulating himself on changes to Countdown he’d made a year before, and which we’d dropped after actually doing them only once. Also, as Lester Holt, Chris Matthews, Joe Scarborough, Jesse Ventura and I realized — in the men's room — the guy wasn’t 6’7’’. He was 6’5’’ and for some reason he was lying about it!
As Keith says: Well, that’s all the damage I can do here for now. Good morning, good afternoon, good night, and good luck.
