Keith Rips Clinton, Ferraro



Special Special Comment: Keith Olbermann gets on his uniquely April fresh soapbox over racist-tinged comments about Barack Obama made by former congresswoman and now-resigned Hillary Clinton campaign finance committee member Geraldine Ferraro.

Short stuff: Spanish and Dutch scientists find that short men tend to be the most jealous of the species, confirming a hypothesis posed decades ago by Randy Newman.

30 minutes are up: Rachel Ray's days cooking on TV may be numbered due to low ratings—and probably the inability of anyone to scrub her FHM spread from their minds.
