"Jeopardy!" has seen quite a bit of pushback from fans lately in regards to the accuracy of its clues. In addition to the “horrible error” that spoiled the first half of the High School Reunion Tournament final, Ken Jennings was called out last month when fans thought he’d given a contestant a hint and misread a clue. He’s just recently returned to the lectern — following Mayim Bialik’s stint hosting the HSRT — and already he’s back on Twitter, defending the answer to one of the clues given during a recent episode.
During the March 15 episode of "Jeopardy!" some viewers took issue with a clue of the canine variety, when Ken Jennings read, “‘Rich, lustrous golden of various shades’ is the AKC standard for the coat of this working breed.”
