Some still wonder if Blago’s “I’m blacker than Barack” comment was a stunt – even though he denied it (video) – because today’s news is Blago will be the first host of a new late night talk show on the internet: “The Late Net Show”. It’ll follow the standard talk show format with celebrity guests, a band and an opening monologue.
Love how the people not from Chicago bash his every move. All they know about him is from the barrymedia. Wonder if they’ll be laughing when Valerie Jarrett, Rahm Emanuel, Reid (and if Blago gets his way – barry) take the stand.
According to the Sun Times’ Michael Sneed:

No censorship, which is a necessity whenever blago gets going
