NotSoSmart Questions (even if you don't know the answers)

Who is LeBron James?
What's the Kremlin?
Why are they doing this at the Pentagon? (asked about a 9/11 commemoration being held there)

"WHO asked these questions?," you wonder.
A 10 year old? Someone from a teeny tiny island off the coast of Isle of NoWhere?

Nope. These questions were asked of my cousin, a news producer, by someone she works with.

the good news
Fortunately, that someone doesn't work with her all the time.

the bad news
That person is a journalist. Really.
An honest-to-goodness ontheTVnews journalist.

Sad, sad, sad.

And while you may or may not know that the Moscow Kremlin is the Russian equivalent of our White House (it's where the Russian President lives), you knew it had something to do with Russian politics, right?

Right?
