Executive producer Harry Friedman tells The Washington Post “very, very, very appropriate” will be taken against the person who posted a clip of Holzhauer losing to YouTube over the weekend. “Somebody alerted us that they had seen it on YouTube. By the time we saw it, it already had 2,000 views,” he says. “I feel bad for the viewers. It’s not fair,” he adds. “I’m not sure what’s gained by doing something like that, other than some malicious intent. It doesn’t really benefit anybody.” ALSO: Holzhauer's loss got huge ratings Monday night, on par with Games 1 and 2 of the NBA Finals -- the most-watched Jeopardy! episode in 14 years.
