Pravda has rented new offices in Arlington and has a new contract to provide news supplied by the Boosh administration but sourced as unbiased news. The plan is to use the bones of what was once the Corporation for Public Broadcasting to beam a VOA-type broadcast to unsuspecting Americans.

All on-air talent will be required to wear sweaters and ties. Men will be required to have beards and longish hair, all in an effort, as one insider termed it "to appear for all the world like reasonable, warm, fuzzy, trustworthy characters."

Recently fired CNN morning host, the vacuous dunce, Bill Hemmer, along with Rush Squeeze Daryn Kagan have been tapped for key anchor spots.


Hemmer, shown here without the glasses the property department supplied him in a effort to look less like an underwear model in the Sears catalog, is reported to be the front runner for the daytime anchor slot.


Shown in this photo, Kagan, far right (how appropriate), is made to look softer by posing with character actresses hired specifically to appear average.

Candy Crowley, also of CNN, is reportedly in talks with Pravda for a key producer spot, preferring to finally retire from her on-air roles. Krispy Kreme has reportedly been a party to the talks with Crowley.


Ms. Crowley, shown in a recent photo, and next to a photo of her body double, who may also be a part of the deal, according to spokespeople for sponsoring donut maker, Krispy Kreme.

The role of the Krispy Kreme company is, at this point, unclear. How large a 'roll' they'll play in any final negotiations between Crowley and Pravda is also unclear. Said an anonymous source close to the talks, "Candy can't keep her mouth shut when Mr. Krispy's in the room." Media industry watchers giggled at the statement, but allowed that they may well understand the cryptic response.
