Matt Lauer, credulous idiot

[acroyear]

The Today Show's Matt Lauer can be the most skeptical and cynical anti-politician interviewer out there, but put a little pseudo-science in front of him and he falls for it like it's a new haircut.

At least, when it comes to "reality show psychic" Lisa Williams (Lifetime), which Lauer bought into so well he didn't even blink at her repeat of the most typical of anti-skeptical responses ("it just doesn't work around people who aren't open to the possibilities"),  Reuters retains it's skepticism and legitimate cynicism intact...

Different name, different accent, same schtick.
