This video from Your World With Neil Cavuto makes our head spin. In it, Cavuto hosts a discussion between Meme Roth, spokesperson for National Action Against Obesity, and Newsweek's Ramin Setoodeh, about American Idol winner Jordin Sparks. The discussion is entirely loony and disconcerting because Roth harps and harps and harps on Sparks' obesity, seemingly unaware that, uhm...Sparks...isn't...even in the slightest way...obese. Roth talks about how when she looks at Sparks she "sees diabetes, heart disease...the picture of unhealth." Setoodeh struggles to keep his conversation points on an even keel--constantly offering that Sparks looks "pretty normal to me." We admire Setoodeh's restraint in not calling for a straitjacket for Roth.

Cavuto, for his part, sits there, aimlessly and dimly agreeing with whoever talked last. It's like his brain is a busted Etch-A-Sketch that's always being shaken clean. Ye Gods!

More storm and static, after the jump:

Baltimore's got flavor!: Baltimore Examiner editor Frank Keegan's Charm City demeanor was on full display this past Wednesday went he went bonkers on his nextdoor neighbor David Ayers, shouting expletives and brandishing a shotgun after his neighbor confronted him over cigarette smoke that he believed had leached into his own home from Keegan's. Ayers claims that the smoke was causing his daughter to have trouble breathing, and that it's been an ongoing problem. Note: Ayers works for Under Armour--he will protect his HOUSE!

Nader comes to Medill, bearing gifts: Apparently, quixotic Presidential hopeful Ralph Nader left a present for all the students at the Medill School of Journalism: copies of Eric Alterman's book, What Liberal Media? We know that Eric, though, simply cannot countenance bias in any way, shape, or form...so, look for Alterman to treat each student to a Weekly Standard subscription, and then, probably, complain about it.

The fate of the Imus slot: It was suggested that MSNBC would be best served by rotating the hosts of their 6 to 9 a.m. timeslot, but it appears that the leading contender for the job is Joe Scarborough.

Fox not keen on Iraq coverage: The Project for Excellence in Journalism reports that "MSNBC and CNN were much more consumed with the war in Iraq than was Fox," citing their official Iraq-to-Anna Nicole ratio as 6:17. But that's not entirely fair! If Anna Nicole Smith had been a significant and embarrassing failure of the Bush administration, Fox wouldn't have covered her, either!

Editor, stat!: Senator Bob Menendez's office will be seeking a skilled proofreader in the coming days.

A View to a Kill: Is it just us, or are things really devolving into some sort of Romper Room of childish personal animus over at The View? They are making Red Eye look like Frontline by comparison.
