Scott McGibbon

Scott McGibbon is Project Specialist at the Norman Lear Center.

He's popped up on SNL, is a frequent foil for Jon Stewart on The Daily Show and now he's slow-jamming the news with Jimmy Fallon. The line between news and entertainment is already as fuzzy as the foamy design on a whole milk latte. Does NBC's Brian Williams really need to stick his finger in and stir? Does he feel he's not getting enough face time? How soon before he sips from a big cup of Coke on his desk during every NBC Nightly News broadcast or does his own "I'm F**king Matt Damon" video? And the next time he reports on some ghastly tragedy or appalling political story, will we care or just wonder how funny it might be if he and Jimmy could slow-jam this one.
