On Tuesday, NBC’s Today promoted the new HBO movie Confirmation, about the 1991 Clarence Thomas Supreme Court hearings and the smear campaign waged against him based on false sexual harassment claims from Anita Hill.

Actor Greg Kinnear appeared at the top of morning show’s 9 a.m. ET hour to talk up the film and discuss his role playing then-Senate Judiciary Committee chairman Joe Biden. He insisted that Biden was nothing but fair throughout the hearings: “...if you watch just the hearings, you certainly get a sense of the – of his trying to walk the line. Of his trying to be impartial and to try to get this thing through.”
