infotainment alert:
The Headline News channel (CNN) premieres the Glenn Beck show on Monday, May 8:
Glenn Beck will be an unconventional look at the news of the day featuring Beck’s unique and often amusing perspective on top stories from world events and politics to pop culture and everyday hassles. Segments will include “Beck’s Notes,” a tongue-in-cheek overview of a story making news; “Real America,” which tells the stories of ordinary Americans overcoming extraordinary obstacles; “Ask Glenn,” in which Glenn dispenses “advice” to e-mailers on a range of topics; and the “Quality of Life Index,” a stock market-like segment on how the newsmakers of the day affect Americans’ quality of life.
The show will include in-studio guests, man-on-the-street interviews, reports from special contributors and Beck’s perspectives on the pop culture headlines of the day.
I’ll have further thoughts on this development. Why I find this interesting: see this post, and this one. I wonder if Jon Klein oversees Headline News. I’ll be curious to find out.
Meanwhile, amusingly, the staff of Beck’s show how long it’ll be before they get the ax.
