Play of the Day: Tom Brady, Inflation and the Fed
What does the Super Bowl have to do with the Federal Reserve?
In the northeast United States, the after-effects of this week's winter storm are still being felt, with plenty of snow still on the ground in Boston and chilly temperatures throughout the New York area. It's so cold, says Late Show's David Letterman that New Jersey governor Chris Christie has to wear two giant sweaters.
The Super Bowl is Sunday and, in addition to the counterfeit merchandise, flooding the late-night television market is the glut of jokes about the game. Conan O'Brien looked at how the game connects to the obesity epidemic in the United States and the Disneyland measles outbreak, while The Nightly Show made occasion to compare the ball's inflation to that of the Federal Reserve.
