This is a great example as to why you should not solely read off of the teleprompter. Contessa Brewer had Reverend Jesse Jackson as a guest on her show today to discuss income inequality and unemployment. It got off to a bad start right out of the gate when Brewer referred to the Reverend as Al Sharpton. You could tell he was not thrilled with the mistake by the look on his face. Brewer apologized to him and explained she knew who he was but was just reading her script which was mistaken.

It's a good damn thing she didn't refer to him as Rush Limbaugh. I am pretty sure Jackson would have jumped through the screen. I also find it oddly annoying that Contessa Brewer sounds very similar to Sarah Palin.
