Are the cheerleaders at the Today Show running low on methamphetamines? In the 20 minutes we've half-watched the morning perk-fest, we've seen an erroneously-timed split screen featuring Oscar de la Renta (who didn't know he was on), a silly (and now likely unemployed) PA walking directly in front of the live camera, and a commercial break inserted (and then quickly removed) in the middle of Matt Lauer's prattling. We're sure they're just uncontrollably excited about covering today's inauguration, but this lack of professionalism is distracting us from learning about the 30,000 pieces of shrimp served last night at some DC party.
