Yes, that would be… The Daily Show. They got John Kerry to come on for a guest appearance. The show, from what I hear, is great. Someone has posted a quick transcript of the segment, but you should check The Daily Show web site tomorrow to see if they’ve posted a video (I sure hope they do). I could bore you with all sorts of thoughts on why he chose the Daily Show, or what that says about the other news programs, but honestly, I think this is just fun… it’s like going on Letterman or Leno a la Nixon on Laugh In.

Newsweek’s Daniel Gross explains the Consumer Price Index (here’s the official BLS site) in a very simple video. I could do without the goofy sound effects, but it’s a good, 2 minute explanation of how the government tracks inflation.
Per David Simon’s Berkeley talk, though, the video doesn’t go into why this matters. Perhaps they’ll cover that in the next installment of the Economics 101 series.
