Here's the source from Tvgameshows.net:

Quote
Jennings, Olmstead, Steve Now Set Monday on Today
     A segment on NBC's Today analyzing Jeopardy! phenomenon Ken Jennings is now scheduled for Monday with Jennings himself expected to appear live.
     Lauren Kapp of the show's promotional staff confirmed the rescheduled date Friday. A pre-taped feature with television's all-time richest winner Dr. Kevin Olmstead and TVgameshows.net's Steve Beverly had been scheduled Friday but will now air Monday.
     A well-placed source told TVgameshows.net Friday night Jennings and his wife were headed for New York this week for expected media appearances, including a possible one on Today.
     Interviews were taped Wednesday night with Olmstead and Beverly. Olmstead set the money record in the spring of 2001 when he won $2.18 million during Who Wants to Be a Millionaire's escalating bonus contest.
     The environmental engineer and quiz bowl coach will join $1.86 million winner Ed Toutant and $1.765 million Twenty One champion David Legler at Game Show Congress 3 Aug. 15 in Burbank.

 No, no, we're pretty sure only the Perfesser would be so full of himself as to refer to himself in the third person like that. :)

What I want to know is, did the Today show staff have to rewrite every one of Ken's interview questions in the form of an answer, and will he be provided with a "signalling device" for the interview?

Interviewer: "Some time last year."

Ken: (CLICK) "When did I first try out for Jeopardy!?"

Y'all know how I feel about the Perf being used as a primary source.
