A [site dedicated to complaining about, and pointing out errors in, TV programs](http://www.rev.net/~aloe/tv/entertainment.html?ref=thedailyeudemon.com). Some are petty, some are clever, some are learned. Samples:

> On 22 March 1999, it was announced that the last Oscar of the century was being awarded. It was not explained why there would be no awards in 2000.

> On 19 December 2000, Geena Davis said that "India remains 2.5% Christian" as "a vestige of the British Empire". There have been Christians in India for over a millennium. More may have converted after Portuguese missionaries arrived in the 16th century. The British only added to the considerable number of Christians already there.

> On or about 16 February 2001, Bill Maher said Bill Clinton had been out of office for months. He had been out of office for less than four weeks.

> On 30 December 1999, Bill Maher claimed "Germany started World War I." Austria-Hungary, whose archduke had been assassinated in Bosnia, started the war on July 28, 1914 against Serbia. Germany did not enter the war until four days later.

> *The Practice*: On 9 July 2000, during testimony by the medical examiner, the murder defendant attacked and choked prosecutor Helen Gamble. A lead defense attorney came to the unconscious prosecutor's aid and yelled for an ambulance. The medical examiner was a physician; why didn't he rush to administer aid to the injured prosecutor?
