in on the joke?
I found this hard to watch as well, but my take was different... I don't think he knew this was coming, and was genuinely embarrassed. While he did continue the interview, as best he could, he certainly didn't do it in character, asking hard (but ridiculous) questions, as he typically does with other "left wing" celebrities. I don't know how he treated Fonda in her other appearance, but it certainly looked to me like he was struggling, trying to find a way to keep to the show and character while trying not to enjoy a very sexy Fonda in his lap for what seemed like a really long time.
It would be interesting to know if he knew that was coming or not...
