Title: Host of Card Sharks and Blockbusters on CNN?
Post by: Steve Gavazzi on June 30, 2003, 12:20:48 PM

If any of you watch CNN's American Morning, you may have noticed that people have a tendency to combine the names of anchors Bill Hemmer and Jack Cafferty into \"Bill Cafferty.\"  Well, this morning, the inevitable happened:  somebody wrote in asking \"where in the world CNN found this 'Bill Rafferty' guy.\"  The person definitely wasn't trying to make a reference to the game show host, but I still found it pretty funny.

 We usually get something like this once a year around the time of the NCAA men's basketball tournament, when someone hears a mention of frequent early-round analyst Bill Raftery.
