Retooling television to work from home?

With America working from home, pajamas and puppies are getting more screen time than ever before.  It appears that WFH is going to be around a while so it's time to rethink television show themes.

JEOPARDY:  Contestants buzz in from home. Wrong answer? Take a shot.

LOCAL NEWS:  Put on some pants, we know you are in boxers and barefoot.

TELENOVELAS:  Set up a "Zoom" chat and go at it.

LATE SHOW? Colbert was always one T away from the coffee talk show. Just imagine...

Assault on fake news sites continues


The assault on fake news is gaining momentum. According to 10,000 gullible people surveyed a spoof, parody or lampoon has no place in modern society.  Laughter is saved for sitcoms, not the daily news.

One Connecticut man is pushing for all news to be rated for credibility which lets readers filter out disagreeable content.

The Connecticut gentleman wants all media to add tags of credibility, as well a flag identifying politic leanings.

Renegade News has been a long standing, credible source of incredible news parodies. Our reports are supplied without warranties or promises, and we hope at least 1 of 10 stories would get you to smile, if only for a moment.

FOX News ads banned online?

Renegade News, an established institution providing decades of erratic, inconsistent, and sometimes humorous news reports strongly disagrees with Google and Facebook's decision to refuse to sell ads to FOX News.  As a parody news site we believe Fake News outlets should be identified, but not banned.


Facebook and Google will not broker advertisements for inclusion on websites and mobile apps that the sites have determined display fake or misleading news after some have raised questions about whether either company may have played a role in the presidential election.

The announcements follows widespread concern over the rapid increase of fake, wrong or misleading news articles on the internet.

Additionally, the news network is not banned in Canada.  CRTC regulations apply only to Canadian broadcasters using Canadian airwaves; they do not apply to non-Canadian news sources transmitted via satellite and cable, not broadcast over public airwaves.

CORRECTION:  This report earlier mentioned FOX News in error, that should read "fake news".

The Amazing Barack-O-Matic Infomercial

I knew it was a mistake to hire Ron Popeil as media coordinator for this infomercial.

How many ways can you CHANGE the government? The Barack-O-Matic Slashes the budget, Cuts spending, Injects the economy and Frappés the Mid-East.

How many votes would you give? Wait, don’t answer yet because if you vote now we’ll throw in this set of Biden Knives. Durable enough to cut through bills and amendments, yet still slices a tomato paper thin.

And for the first 1,500,000,000 customers, just for trying the Barack-O-Matic, we’ll give you a Six Pack of Genuine Sarah Palin Beer (naturally foamy, doncha know all good beers have a good head. You betcha!). This gift is yours to keep, just as long as you vote.
