Fox News Resorts to Desperate Measures

Variety: “Now Fox News Channel, a primary source of material for Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert, is teaming with the exec producer of ’24’ to try its hand at a news satire show for conservatives to love. Joel Surnow, co-creator of ’24,’ is shooting two half-hour pilots of a skein he described as ”The Daily Show’ for conservatives,’ due to air in primetime on Saturdays in January.”

They’re only calling it satire. It will be straight-up slander, you watch.
