In what falls squarely under the definition of too much information, the “Today” show’s jovial weatherman shared with "Dateline NBC" – and the American public – that he once soiled his pants during a visit to the White House.
“When you have a bypass and your bowels been reconstructed, you think you’re pretty safe,” Roker confided. “And I probably went off and ate something I wasn’t supposed to.… As I’m walking to the press room, I go, I have to pass a little gas here.”
As I heard this I thought, “No. Please stop, Al Roker.”
This is where a CliffsNotes-version would have been helpful. But alas, Roker continued, stream-of-consciousness and all.
“So I’m walking by myself, who’s going to know? Only a little something extra came out.”
Keeping a face of journalistic gravity, Snyderman responded, “You pooped in your pants.”
“I pooped in my pants,” Roker confirmed.
“I was panicking,” Roker said. “So I got to the restroom of the press room, threw out the underwear and you know, went commando.”

That "whoosh"-ing sound you heard was not Al Roker farting, but the last vestige and semblance of any journalistic integrity being flushed down the toilet. It literally died the moment Nancy Snyderman stated, in total seriousness: "You pooped your pants." I wonder if Walter Cronkite or Edward R Murrow would have asked JFK if he ever 'pooped his pants'.
What's next? Helen Thomas discussing how she once ran out of Tampax at a presidential press conference and had to borrow some from Dee Dee Myers?
