The end of satire

The new satire "American Dreamz" places a (wacky) U.S. president on a (tacky) TV game show. But it hasn't even been released yet, and it's already out of date: "[F]our former prime ministers will gather on-stage in Toronto next week to elect a potential future leader of the country in a landmark CTV special," it sez here in this CTV press release.

"In 'The Next Great Prime Minister,' The Right Honourable Kim Campbell, The Right Honourable Joe Clark, The Right Honourable Brian Mulroney and The Right Honourable John Turner will judge five young visionaries -- representing the next generation of Canada's leaders -- competing in a head-to-head political showdown. In addition to a $50,000 prize and internship, the winner walks away with the endorsement of four former prime ministers as the young Canadian best suited to become The Next Great Prime Minister."
