A shame his investigative talents withered away covering the tapioca-brained bumbling Biden bunch. Hey, maybe he can get a sweet book deal to write a Now It Finally Can Be Told tome much like his CNN comrade Joke Tapped-Out
Can we expect backyard security footage of Raccoon Danny rummaging through Doug Ford’s garbage bins?
Well that certainly clarifies a lot.

Hope I die before I get old (talkin' 'bout my generation).
by Pete Townshend
Looks as though we didn't make it. 😉
To me, elderly is when a guy in my age range can't keep up to me in my 1.25 acre woodland garden...and I'm old.
As for adjectives as descriptors on air, newsguy1 has the correct answer.

Americans have a limited amount of time to stop him before there's no going back. Anyone who spends even a minimal amount of time observing the goings on since January 20th can see the madness.
Did you ever imagine America becoming what it's becoming? This summer will tell the tale. If there aren't mass Vietnam-era style demonstrations, in cities across America, then the 2026 midterms will prove meaningless.
It's all so demoralizing and disgusting.

Secondly, Neil is a former CBC employee, so there is no connection there.
Buzzy Krumhunger wrote:
Former CBC News correspondent Neil Macdonald is in hot water for making disparaging comments about the funeral for Pope Francis. Big deal you might think, that’s just standard operating procedure for anyone at the CBC when mocking Christianity.
Thirdly, Joyce is a former CBC and CTV employee, so there is no connection there either.
Buzzy Krumhunger wrote:
The kicker…Macdonald is married to former CBC and CTV correspondent Joyce Napier, the current Canadian ambassador to the Holy See, y’know, the Vatican.
Fourthly, whatever Neil's late brother may, or may not, have said about the Holy See, or Catholicism in general, is irrelevant to Neil.
Buzzy Krumhunger wrote:
I don’t know if you guys are history buffs or not but you might not remember Neil Macdonald was the older brother of some guy named Norm. Interesting that this is not the first, admittedly tenuous Weekend Update connection that SNL has with the Vatican.
