Tweety choking to death live on tv.

He's been doing alot of coughing on air in recent shows. I wonder if he's well.

Most on-air personalities are expected not to do this.

I have had hacking episodes myself lately. It can be out of control and embarrassing.

He is not able to talk while coughing. I must admit I do not wish him good health.

Having said that he irritates the daylights out of me. He speaks over his guests, he talks too fast, and he dismisses his guests’ ideas. I often wonder why people go on his show. I only watch for interesting guests and Tell Me Something I Don’t Know. But I agree, tonight was painful with all the coughing and gasping for air. I hope someone on his production staff has some EMT experience.

Unfortunately his frame of reference for "insider" stuff ends in the 80's with Tip O'Neill and Reagan. His election and poll analysis is lame as well.
