Now We Know What To Call Him

From today’s “Under the Dome“:

    When George Stephanopoulos left the Clinton White House and landed at ABC News, there was some concern over whether he’d be biased as a newsman. But Rep. Rahm Emanuel (D-Ill.), who served with Stephanopoulos in the Clinton administration, has his own concerns about the host of “This Week.”

    In an interview last week, The Hill asked Emanuel if it’s weird being interviewed by his ex-colleague.

    “What’s weird is not calling him Georgie,” Emanuel responded. “If I ever did that, that would be a sign that we know each other all too well. The whole purpose is to get through the show without swearing or calling him Georgie. If I do that, then I feel like I have a successful show.”
