Dying is easy; comedy is hard

An Iraqi comedian "who was famous for mocking everyone from the Iraqi government to U.S. forces to Shiite militias to Sunni insurgents" was shot and killed today in Baghdad.

Meanwhile, a bevy of Presidential candidates are "lining up" to appear on the Daily Show, according to a story in the British newspaper the Telegraph. That's understandable -- Colbert would make them look even worse.

Furtherly meanwhile, it is reported that viewer numbers at Fox News are declining (courtesy TVNewser) as ratings for MSNBC's Keith Olbermann's "Countdown" skyrocketed after the host "got pissed off" this year.
