* The [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geraldo_(talk_show)#Controversy November 3, 1988]] episode of Geraldo Rivera's talk show that resulted in Rivera suffering a broken nose had an incident where John Metzger (son of White Aryan Resistance founder Tom) was attempting to bait black civil-rights activist Roy Innis (founder of Congress of Racial Equality, or [[FunWithAcronyms CORE]]) into reacting in a hostile manner, succeeding when - after the younger Metzger called Innis an "Uncle Tom" - Innis grabbing Metzger by the neck; resulting in a brawl and ultimately a chair being thrown and making contact with Geraldo's nose.

* TruthInTelevision: The phrase, "Them's fightin' words!" comes from "fighting words" which originated as a legal term describing words spoken to deliberately incite a fight (e.g., in Tennessee and the DC area, you can get arrested for calling someone a coward if they refuse to fight you). The "fighting words" defense for assault in common is based on the premise that what someone said was so recognizably enraging that the injured party became an AssholeVictim and the person who punched/slapped them was entirely justified in doing so.

It turns out that the boy had called her mother a very dirty slur, and both the boy's father and the girl's immediately agreed that that was the definition of "them's fighting words" and she'd done nothing wrong.

The disc jockey makes several jabs at Monk, while the detective turns the other cheek. However, he takes it too far with callous jokes about the car bombing that killed Trudy, and the usually reserved Monk leaps across the table to deliver a beating.
