Real news vs. fake news

I have posted the pictures of two people below - I think they look similar enough to be confused. The problem is that the man in the top picture is Dan Abrams, the top legal correspondant for NBC. But when he appears on shows like the Today show and makes comments, I initially think he's a correspondent from Comedy Central's Daily Show. The picture of that person is the second one below, Steve Carell.

Just think - the idea of a fake news correspondent appearing on a real news show is a little startling and confusing.
