Andrew Rooney

Andy Rooney is an American journalist and commentator. He is seen on the weekly news program 60 Minutes.

Though originally a reguar correspondent, Rooney now has his own "end of show" segment, in which he offers a light-hearted editorial on a trivial issue, such as the cost of groceries, annoying realtives, or faulty christmas presents.

His mini-rants have been archived in numerous books, most recently Common Nonsense, which came out in 2001.
