Seth Meyers updates late-night talk show hosts on the 2020 election and its aftermath for Throwback Thursday on April Fools Day


I concluded yesterday's The U.S. passes 30 million reported COVID-19 cases as cases spike in Michigan, a pandemic update by telling my readers "Stay tuned for a less serious entry tomorrow for April Fools Day, which will also be a Throwback Thursday. A funny look back, anyone?" For that, I turn to Seth Meyers.


April Fools! That's not Seth Meyers. It's Biola University math professor Matthew Weathers' Presidential Debate Remix/Parody in Math Class. This is Seth Meyers in Feds Consider Sedition Charges for Capitol Riot, Examine Trump’s Role: A Closer Look.

Seth takes a closer look at the former top prosecutor for the Capitol riots saying that evidence from the attack could support sedition charges as federal investigators continue to examine Trump’s role in fomenting the insurrection.
As I have written repeatedly about the criminal prosecutions of public officials for their roles in the Flint Water Crisis, "The wheels of justice are grinding slowly in this case, but I expect they will indeed grind exceedingly fine." May they also grind exceedingly fine for Trump and his seditious supporters, if not as slowly.

Follow over the jump for the most read posts about the 2020 election and its aftermath during the tenth year of Crazy Eddie's Motie News that featured Meyers along with other late-night talk show hosts including Stephen Colbert, Trevor Noah, Jimmy Kimmel, James Corden, Samantha Bee, and Jimmy Fallon.



The most read entry featuring late-night talk show hosts as well as the most read entry posted during the tenth year of this blog was Colbert, Kimmel, and Corden react to Trump's speech last night with derision and outrage plus a bonus Closer Look from November 6, 2020. As of March 20, 2021, it earned ~2,810 default and 2,923 raw page views, mostly from my sharing it at the Coffee Party USA Facebook page followed by Infidel 753 sharing the link at his blog, making it also the second most read entry overall last year according to default page views and the third most read according to raw page views. In addition, it ranked as the most read entry posted during the 2020 calendar year with ~2,790 default and ~2,850 raw page views, placing second only to Zombie Apocalypse Index for Day of the (Walking) Dead. It was also the second most read post during November 2020 as well as the most popular entry posted that month with ~2,780 default and 2,824 raw page views by the end of the month. Finally, it had the highest engagement rate of any of my tweets during December 2020 at 41.2% with 7 engagements, including 3 detail expands, 3 replies in 2 threads (tied for most not by me), and 2 likes.


The next most read entry featuring late-night talk show hosts and their monologues about the election during the blogging year just ended was Colbert, Kimmel, Meyers, Corden, and Fallon express outrage and offer comfort in response to yesterday's attempted self-coup from January 7, 2021. It earned ~2,320 default and 2,471 raw page views as of March 20, 2021 to rank fifth by default and sixth by raw page views overall and fourth among entries posted during the tenth year of the blog. It was the most read entry of January 2021 with ~2,210 default and 2,256 raw page views, earning those page views through basic social media promotion plus being shared at Coffee Party USA's Facebook page. It tied for the most saved pin from both the current blogging year and the month I posted it with 2 saves. The entry is currently the most read entry for the 2021 calendar year so far.


The next three entries placed in consecutive order after the second most read in this category, beginning with Colbert, Noah, Kimmel, and FiveThirtyEight recap last night's WWE match of a debate from September 30, 2020. The post received ~2,120 default and 2,209 raw page views as of the end of the tenth blogging year to rank six overall according to default page views, seventh overall according to raw page views, and fifth among entries actually posted during the blogging year just ended. It also ranked sixth overall according to default and raw page views and fourth among entries posted during the 2020 calendar year.

Seth Meyers and Jimmy Kimmel take closer looks at Trump saying he won't leave the White House from December 18, 2020 was the next in the sequence, ranking seventh overall according to its ~1,740 default page views and eighth overall, sixth among entries posted during the tenth year of Crazy Eddie's Motie News, with 1,794 raw page views. It was also the top post for December 2020 with ~1,740 default and exactly 1,742 raw page views, which also ranked it eighth overall and sixth among entries posted during the 2020 calendar year. The entry earned its readership through basic social media promotion plus being shared at the Coffee Party USA Facebook page.


The last entry in the sequence was Colbert, Meyers, and Kimmel on calls for Trump to resign or be removed by 25th Amendment or impeachment from January 8, 2021. It received ~1,610 default and 1,691 raw page views to rank ninth overall according to both measures and seventh among entries posted during the 2020-2021 blogging year.

It is currently the second most read entry for the 2021 calendar year.


I'm dropping down several places to Michigan hearing goes viral as Corden, Kimmel, Fallon, and Colbert spread the laughter from December 4, 2020. The entry earned ~1,220 default and 1,275 raw page views to rank 15th overall by default page views and among entries posted during the 2020-2021 blogging year and 17th overall by raw page views. It ranked fifth for December 2020 according to its ~1,230 default and ~1,240 raw page views and fourth among entries actually posted during the month. The entry ranked 16th among all entries posted during the 2020 calendar year, 14th among entries actually posted during 2020. The entry earned its readership through basic social media promotion plus being shared at the Coffee Party USA Facebook page.


Trevor Noah recounts 'The Great USPS War' from September 3, 2020 and Colbert, Meyers, and Noah take closer looks at Trump refusing to commit to a peaceful transfer of power from September 25, 2020 earned honorable mentions for tying for most saved pins from the current posting year and month during September 2020 with 1 save each. So does The giant impeach lands on Trump again as Colbert, Meyers, Kimmel, Fallon, and Bee take closer looks from January 14, 2021 and retweeted January 24, 2021, which earned 1,158 impressions to rank 11th and 11 total engagements, including 4 likes, 4 profile clicks, 1 reply in 1 thread, 1 retweet, and 1 hashtag click, to rank 10th.

That was a long post. I promise to make tomorrow's entry for Flashback Friday shorter. Stay tuned.
