Fox Creating Right-Wing Daily Show

Fox News' unapologetically right-wing-biased - aka "fair and balanced" - approach to the news has made the network popular among the conservative-talk-listening set.

But despite their top-dog status, Fox News still wants to play the underdog card by creating a Saturday-night satirical news program that's a sort of right-leaning Daily Show.

24 producer Joel Surnow is creating a pilot, which will be "anchored" by comedians Kurt Long and Susan Yeagley.

And while The Daily Show and The Colbert Report spoof homophobia (among other issues) in the government and the mass media, Romeo expects that this Bizarro-world version, set to premiere in January, will indulge in some of the antigay sentiment mocked by its progressive counterpart.
