Attack of the blog roundups: MSNBC showed a screenshot of Vinod’s Indra Nooyi post today. Watch the clip.

They focused on Nooyi’s actual remarks and her position as Pepsi president, not the nativist backlash, which is exactly right. Oddly, they quoted the mildest phrase that’s ever been written on Little Green Frothballs: ‘I drink Coke anyway.’

This actually isn’t Vinod’s first time on an NBC network — here’s a photo of his appearance on CNBC several years ago. I’m not sure why he looks angry, but maybe someone stole his copy of ZAMM.

Also, Slate mentioned our MIT time traveler post last week, which Abhi first wrote about.

Thanks for the pixels, anonymous bored journies! Do your bosses know you surf blogs instead of working? Not that you’ll ever read this unless it pops up on Technorati with keywords about national stories. Unfortunately, I don’t see us writing about PARIS HILTON, MICHAEL JACKSON or TERRY SCHIAVO without a genuine desi angle. That would just be crass.

But The Daily Show was right, reading blogs out loud on TV does look pretty silly (watch clip). How about showing our dating profiles next time? Now that would be useful TV ;)
