When Punkin was little and I was home with her, I would never miss an episode of The Morning Exchange with Fred Griffith.
What I didn't know was that the Morning Exchange in 1972 when it debuted, would spawn a world of morning talk-news programs that have become commonplace. Cleveland, Ohio, was the birthplace of the format in which we watch Matt Lauer, Charlie Gibson, and whoever those guys on CBS are.


I suppose now you'll argue that's just another reason to hate Cleveland.
