Knowing policy does help make the gossip more understandable.

At NBC I wasn't really sure if the grandparents were going to get my sense of humor on a particular topic.

It's not like I just have to go to Washington and go to the White House everyday, and go to the same press conference at 10 in the morning and then be briefed at 4 in the afternoon, and then get a story on at 6.

I'm surprised and disappointed in American culture.

I've been told I'm a player, but people still don't always return my calls.

At MTV, it's very nice sometimes to be able to be very specific. Specificity really makes a news story interesting because you can color it in that personality.

Caring about policy is important - people in washington forget.
