Wolf Blitzer Gets Mercy Rule On Celebrity Jeopardy

Wolf Blitzer embarrassed himself on Celebrity Jeopardy today. He was completely obliterated by Andy Richter, who entered Final Jeopardy with $39.000 vs. Wolf's -$4,600. While in a regular Jeopardy game, anyone with a negative number is automatically eliminated, Alex Trabek was forced to institute the "mercy rule" for Celebrity Jeopardy, meaning he was given $1,000 so he could participate in Final Jeopardy.

And these news anchors hold themselves up as the intelligentsia above all others. Hillarious!
