Economy into Politics This reputed business genius appears to know nothing about business. Politics Why a know-nothing ego-maniac has no business on the phone with world leaders. I was normally in her office or she in mine, four out of five days, just to throw the crap around. Several times I talked her out of storming out of the place, and several times she talked me out of storming out.

You think they thought that? My manager and I had long discussed the prospects of going somewhere else. Keith, this is Al Gore. How soon was it that he contacted you? Saturday, the day after my last show. You broke the news of your departure on the show that Friday. At what point did you know that would be your last day? I was pretty sure that was the last day at the start of that day.

There was a lot of emotion and a lot of regret. What were your initial discussions with Al Gore like when he called? Can you afford to do it? It was that quick. I slept on it overnight, and we started going with it on Sunday. Everything since then has been like that. Do you think the Republican push for cutting the budget is going to blow up in their faces?

Everything else, particularly on health care reform, he was right and I was wrong. I thought he needed to be in there with a mallet, pounding away from Day One. Instead, he came in at the end and saved it. Two years ago I attended an off-the-record lunch he held for columnists. It was like watching a great play—just masterful.

Al is a big fan of that. It was a risky thing to do. The way it came about is a great story. I read to my father in the hospital, and the thing he enjoyed most was Thurber. He was my public-relations agent and my biggest fan. One time, he said I should color my hair. My dad had a comb-over. The last person on earth I want to listen to about fucking hair is you. Were your politics close? He was much more cynical than I am. The first thing I remember politically is having a baby sitter, because my folks were going next door to eat with the neighbors.

And before I went to bed, they were already back in the house, and my dad was in a rage. They had been talking politics, and the neighbors called my father a communist.

You and Glenn Beck are both leaving your networks at the same time. What do you think of him as a broadcaster? People who think his leaving Fox News was some kind of change in tone caused by the Giffords thing are as wrong about that as they are when they apply it to me.

Any broadcasters you admire these days? Within news, no. But David Letterman never gets the credit he deserves. The other one who is tremendously relevant in terms of his grasp of reality and America is Craig Ferguson.

His openings are marvelous, and often brilliantly insightful. Comedians are the only ones paid to tell the truth in public discourse. A good public-relations man keeps you away from the public, and if you have relations, he keeps that hidden. So you aspire to the honesty of a comedian? I have the opportunity to rebuild it better and start looking for people to do the next hour and the next hour, the whole operation.
