‘Today’ Stoops To Sheep-Shagging Humor

“Today” might have hit a new low in tasteless humor on network morning news shows, with a sheep-shagging double entendre this morning.

Meredith Vieira and Al Roker are over in Ireland this week.  Opening this morning’s show, Vieira explained that as part of their visit, they did a bit of sheep-herding, which led to this suggestive exchange between the pair. . .

MEREDITH VIEIRA: Another tradition in Ireland is sheep herding. Some people say that it is becoming a dying art. Al and I attempted it, and I hope that single-handedly we didn’t kill it. Hopefully not. I’m not sure how much fun the sheep had. We had a great time.

Comedic pause from Al . . .

AL ROKER: Yeah. Anyway . . .

Meredith knew exactly what Al had in mind, as she swatted him with her papers, adding “oh, stop it!”
