What’s That I Smell On MSNBC?

Tim Russert Farting on the CapitalTim Russert’s quivering ring-piece got over 5k 13k clicks on Buzzfeed. Not that anyone should be surprised. Put the word exclusive, breaking news, or no spin, in front of a steaming bowel movement and Americans will tune in to watch.

How else do we explain Bill O’reilly?

The “best links” below the Russert story feature the “AMAZING Regis fart”, “Relive the magic: Larry King farts LIVE”, and “Watch Paula Fart on Simon.” You know, I frequently read that journalism is in a sorry state in America. But here’s ample proof that at least its digestive system is intact.

    Does the overt bitterness come from the fact that your world class beer farts go unnoticed except by Alex and the flys lured in the window?

    sure i’m bitter. my flatulence is just as important as Russert’s. yet there are no videos of me passing gas on buzzfeed. life is so unfair.
