Franken May Become Regular Fixture On Sundance Channel

[Democat]

The CEO of Robert Redford's Sundance Channel indicated that he plans to carry a one-hour edited version of Franken's daily radio talk show at least through the November elections and, if it proves successful, beyond the elections.

He said that he has scheduled it to air at 11:30 p.m. in the hope that it will pick up viewers from Comedy Central's The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, which airs at 11:00 p.m.

1. Oh, this is GOOD!

Now, do I even GET the Sundance Channel on my cable here in Vegas...?

2. Nice move, drafting off 'The Daily Show' n/t

3. Yeah, and it saves me from the dreaded Nightline

which is usually SUCH a downer after TDS.

4. Yeah, TDS is doing the job Nightline *should* be doing

I can't get the ridiculous images of Koppel in his "embedded" get-up out of my head.

He was such a fawning toadie of the regime.
