More Object Pronoun Confusion, Like Shooting Fish in a Barrel

Hal Fishman: "...a 45-year news veteran, first joined KTLA/CW in Los Angeles in 1965, and has anchored the station's # 1-rated "KTLA Prime News" continuously since 1975."

You'd think with credentials like these, Mr. Fishman would not have said in prefacing a nightly commentary, this one concerning the Pope:

"And finally...commentary tonight between the Pope and I."

Should have said, "...between the Pope and me." In this case, the "case" of the object of a preposition, it should be all about me.
