1. He does the occasional segment on 60 min. Been doing it for a few years, I think.

The media is one happy family!
Some call it "partnerships".

CNN partners with both ABC and CBS and also is owned by same entity that owns Time Magazine
NBC of course owns MSNBC and CNBC and partners with WAPO, NYT and Newsweek.
It goes on and on like that.

That's why media collusion is not something that couldn't and hasn't happened.

9. "Media Consolidation"... Many still don't understand how severe it's become.
I know you do, Frenchie Cat.

But for the rest:

10. He was subbing for Regis On Kelly Reba and Regis Philbon Live.. earlier in the week.
He obviously has his pick of jobs.
