Imagine Ben Shapiro does a paternity test on Maury. “You are not the father.” Gasps throughout the audience. The wife turns away in embarrassment. Ben holds his head in shame, unable to look at the camera. Maury, arm extended, reaches to put a reassuring hand on Ben’s shoulder. Leaning in just close enough to whisper into his ear, too softly for the lapel mic to capture, Maury expresses with the deepest sympathy: “Facts don’t care about your feelings.” The show goes to commercial.
