He is also the host of CNN's "Reliable Sources" and the author of "Media Circus," "Hot Air," "Spin Cycle" and "The Fortune Tellers: Inside Wall Street's Game of Money, Media and Manipulation."

Ohhhhhhhh! My head feels like an overripe cantaloupe and some sucker is playing a bongo ditty on it with two 8-pound sledges... But even it being near midnight in the Big B, I wanted you know how bad it was hurting!

Kurtz reveals himself. He calls Hardball hard news and others opinion format!

Howard Kurtz: First, I think you may overstate the influence of cable news, which has relatively small audiences compared to the broadcast networks. Second, there are shows (Countdown, Hardball, Anderson Cooper 360, 7 pm hour of the Situation Room) that cover a fair amount of hard news. And so, in their own way, do O'Reilly and Hannity, albeit in an opinionated format.

Howie likes to think he is being 'Fair and Balanced' yet even when he gets semi-close to the mark, he is still leaning toward the dark side...

We busted Wolf once... He was plucking a chicken without a permit.

And we have a photo of Wolf on his High Mountain vacation...

You know, Normy, I made a lot of fun at cutting off heads... And freezing them for Cryogenics purposes...

Thanks, Cliff, but I think that is more information than get'emall wanted to know...
