One of my favorite comedians Dennis Miller used a Thunderball metaphor on Fox News’ The O’Reilly Factor on November 12. The metaphor which referenced Emilio Largo’s Disco Volante was used to describe how William S. Paley and Edward R. Murrow turned in their graves when Katie Couric bombed during her first month at CBS. I think it’s pretty funny so check it out! The reference starts at 1:36 into the video but I suggest watching it from the beginning to get the full context.
