Steeltrap,
Joe Pyne is the granddaddy of controversial talk TV. Without him, there would be no Jerry Springer Show, or O'Reilly Factor, or Rush Limbaugh, or Morton Downey Jr. Show, or Wally George Show (aka Hot Seat).
Joe Pyne is the original confrontation artist, and he was a well-seasoned pro who could see the weaknesses in his guests' dialogue and could attack accordingly. He was sharp, he was merciless, and he straight up didn't give a freak what anyone else said about it--JUST LIKE ME!!
I'm tellin' y'all, check out his story @ TVParty.com (see link in initial post).
