I've got the Roger Clemens hearing going in the background, and I swear I just heard Rep. Dan Burton (R-IN) decrying "trial by media" and "circus" hearings in his defense of Clemens.

If you weren't of age during the Clinton years, then you missed Burton in his trial-by-circus-hearing heyday:

Burton regularly makes headlines with attention-getting stunts. In 1993, he fired a rifle at a "headlike thing" in his backyard in front of a homicide expert to prove his theory that Clinton advisor Vincent Foster did not commit suicide but was murdered and that his body was moved to a Virginia park. In 1995, he wrote Clinton, demanding to know whether taxpayers were footing the cost of stationery and postage for the fan club dedicated to Socks, the first cat. (They were not.)
