It never ceases to amaze us just how campy The Insider is, with its sparkly graphics and benignly-insipid narration and "reporting." Last night's episode offered up a prime example when the show's producers decided to turn paparazzi and press conference footage of Jack Nicholson into a story about Jack's "feelings" about what happened to Heath Ledger, with the only real link between the two actors being that they both played the Joker in different Batman movies. It's kind of priceless how Jack — who looks stoned — responds only by saying, "I warned people about [drugs]." Morgan Freeman, who was at the same press conference with Jack promoting The Bucket List, is "also distraught," according to Pat O'Brien. Freeman only says: "It affects me in the same way." That's quality journalism right there! Clip above.
