Synopsis by Hal Erickson

Long before The Commish and The Shield, Michael Chiklis guest-starred on this Murphy Brown episode as a foul-mouthed, misogynistic standup comedian named Andrew Dice...er, named Tony Rocket. Not wishing to put up with Rocket's patented anti-feminist slurs, Murphy refuses the opportunity of interviewing the man (sort of like what's-her-name on Saturday Night Live, remember?) But Miles (Grant Shaud) forces Murphy to proceed with the interview, struggling to keep her cool in what the CBS publicity folks described as "Rocket's Red Glare"!
