Back when Homer was accused of sexual harassment, he went on public television to plead his case, and Groundskeeper Willie came to the rescue. Why didn't Marge or Lisa suggest they go to that station again, instead of to the cable news channel (obvious spoof of CNN)?

Local television is neither public access nor public...

By the way, if you meant obvious spoof of Chris Matthews and MSNBC, you'd be right on...

No, no, no.... It's not a spoof of Chris Matthews or CNN.

It's obviously a spoof of Fox News and someone like Bill O'Reilly or Rush Liimbaugh or Sean Hannity.

Chris Matthews may be loud-mouthed and argumentative, but he doesn't totally mislead the guests and manipulate what they say into riduculous arguments, like the NeoCon talk show hosts do.

And it's nice that someone can do the "Tom Brokaw" voice...but I thought the point in having Kent Brockman do the news was to parody people like Tom Brokaw...the coexistence of the two in the Simpsons world throws off the perspective of the show.

Kent Brockman is clearly a local news guy, seen in and around Springfield only. Seeing a national news guy like Brokaw doesn't throw anything off.
