Yeas & Nays told you on Monday that hip-hop media mogul Russel Simmons is coming to D.C. on Friday to promote his new book "Super Rich: A Guide To Having It All," but it turns out Simmons isn't just touting his book -- he's getting political and playing journalist too. After Saturday's tragic shooting in Tucson, Ariz., "Super Rich" Russ talked with Fox News President Roger Ailes about tensions in America and the need to "tone down left- and right-wing arguments" in an exclusive interview for Russ' GlobalGrind.com. According to a press release, Ailes told his reporters to "shut up, tone it down and make your argument intellectually. You don't have to do it with bombast. I hope the other side does that." Simmons followed up by saying, "We need to create a dialogue, which I'd like to be part of, that brings people together to have intellectual discussion on how to govern this country."
