Nothing is broadcast "live" other than maybe Saturday Night Live on NBC.
Things like Larry King has a delay, and even if someone get's in a fuck on
something like SNL or a "News Event" by the time it reaches the West Coast
it's gone. (3 hour delay)

However, I do believe Clinton could say, "Hello America, can you believe
what these motherfuckers are pulling now?" and get away with it.
