There was a conan interview on the Today Show today, the video is on the msnbc webpage as "‘Today’ video: Conan O’Brien has a Finn twin!". Nothing much new, just the basic stuff, but it is Conan speaking for a change (instead of all these finnish reporters/commentators ;). Go to www.msnbc.com link is right there on the frontpage. (for some reason I couldn't manage to paste it here..) Hei!

So all the news going to people who don't understand Finnish are influenced by outsiders? This explains a helluva lot. Now I see why you see such huge biases and near-criminal selfcensorship.
