He actually did a very similar interview on The Daily Show.

The Today show is fun. The American and European counterparts are so lame I think they're run by the catholic church.

I love it when years back on British TV film critics bashed Sacha B Cohen as a one trick pony with Ali G. Sort of funny, but what else can he do? SBC is a sharp tack. Love his stuff. And he's one of the smartest guys around. Good luck to many more movies and other ventures. Now if he made a theme park - that would be different.

Maybe not on a mainstream news program, but he basically did the same thing on The Daily Show

I like this character.
