7. The entire Colbert, CBS, FCC, Talarico interview sititation.

Colbert is not a lawyer and I think he misunderstood some of what was happening. The FCC has been trying to go after The View for quite some time. Recently Carr opened an investigation of their show with his BS "Equal Time Rule" crap that does not apply at all. Because of this, lawyers at CBS/Colbert, probably due to their fear of the con artist, advised Colbert that Carr could attempt to go after him to. Now, it's ridiculous that the lawyers are this weak and were caving to or even entertaining caving to this ridiculousness, and it's great that Colbert exposed this move by Carr, but it has absolutely nothing to do with Jasmine Crockett. Jasmine Crockett isn't complaining that she didn't get her "equal time", she is simply answering all the media questions she keeps getting asked about what this was all about.
