Fox Launches Daily Show Parody

DateThursday, February 15, 2007 at 7:57AM

Actually, I didn't think it was too bad.

Really? Because I think it comes off as very forced. Click through to the YouTube video page and read some of the comments... I'm not alone on this one.

Some parts of it did seem forced, such as the dialog between the two faux news casters, but on the balance, I thought it was pretty good, especially when considering the audience - mostly people who are fed up with Obamamania.
