Remember when the relationship between a therapist and patient was considered hallowed and private?
Why is it then, for the people who choose to watch, does America have to be exposed to all of O'Brien's dirty little secrets on prime time television? Is it the "can't look away from the car wreck syndrome"?
Also, I'm guessing that once this airs, O'Brien will feel completely cleansed and pronounced one-hundred percent healthy, almost as if nothing ever happened in the first place. In fact, he'll probably be hailed as a hero for his courage.
Will you watch it? |

Why would the folks that syndicate Dr. Phil and run the CBS Network have Pat O'Brien on in Prime Time, during the May Sweeps?
Oh, yeah. They own The Insider also. Boy, media consolidation has been great for the public. Thanks, FCC.
