Normally, I'd rip Pam Oliver for this...
Honestly, who hasn't done this? It sucks that it happened while she was on the air, but I lose my train of thought mid-sentence all the time. She had the good sense to shut her mouth. I usually keep on speaking.

(For some reason I can't get this to embed but if you go here you can watch it. It's worth it. I promise.)
I'm alternately horrified that a reporter could make such a terrible mistake (although my opinion of television journalists couldn't get much lower, so perhaps I shouldn't be all that surprised) and laughing out loud at this classic line from Francesa...
"Number two, Bill Walsh didn't call Mike. Bill Walsh is dead."
Indeed.
