CNN Looks For A Michael Clayton

No, not the Michael Clayton, because as far as I know after doing some digging the George Clooney drama isn’t about an actual person but is pure fiction. CNN on their American Morning show did a feature where they looked for a Michael Clayton. Just any old people out there who shared the same name as Michael Clayton and were employed as a lawyer. I swear to God they did a story on this and went so far as to interview an actual real life lawyer named Michael Clayton. The man had nothing to talk about but seemed to like the publicity, joking that he’s started calling himself George Clooney. I could hardly contain my beverage in my mouth at this humor. The story then went on to talk about other stats that CNN had discovered, including the fact that they were unable to find an attorney that had the name George Clooney. These statistical studies CNN likes to do are getting better and better. If you share the name of a movie character or an actor, contact CNN because they just might interview you.

In the meantime, watch this video clip from Kids In the Hall and replace every mention of Dave in your head with Michael or Clayton.
