Of course, they even looked back at Watergate for a comparison. A thrilled Charlie Rose opened the program by hyperventilating, “Welcome to CBS This Morning. Former FBI director James Comey is ready for what could be historic testimony on Capitol Hill.” Co-host Norah O’Donnell told Chip Reid, “What a historic morning it is.”
