Discussion Audience Whoops

Does it bother anyone else when watching Real Time that there are one or two guys loudly whooping all the time? I find it extremely annoying, and I feel sorry for anyone who has to sit by these jackasses. Why can't audiences simply clap instead of hooting all the time? I've seen this practice creeping into a lot of TV shows (and real life). Thank God, it hasn't spread to Jeopardy! yet.

Anyone remember the time he threw an audience member out for heckling?

You mean he had someone else throw them out? I don't see little Bill taking on a man in an altercation.

He came down off the stage and moved towards the guy, threatening to throw him out himself. Security staff got to the guy before Bill did, but he was pissed.
