JBN decides Not to
satirize satire columnist Andy Borowitz
When you make hits
for a living it can be a cut throat adventure. With the goal of obtaining
hits for the web site, I consider satirizing a satirize columnist, and who
better than Andy Borowitz. Surely his name would draw attention and the
name Borowitz was full of possibilities… so, just being the editor of JBN
, I still run everything thru Mr. Bossmund for approval. Immediately I can
sense he sees no humor in this idea. “If we write about him we’ll never
hear the end of it from the entire satire community. He when on to say
that Mr. Borowitz probably would not think this was funny.” I questioned
the thought of a satire writer not having a sense of humor…then I
remembered I worked for Mr. Bossmund, {I won’t say any more, I need my
job.) who suggested I do a little research on this Borowitz guy. I knew
his daily story always pushed JBN’s latest story down the column on the
satire feed. So I read his latest bit, and his info on the
website. After
my limited research I concluded that Andy Borrowitz, best known for
producing the TV show Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and author of humorous books
including the Trillion air Next-door, (which may be an autobiography), has
a brilliant web site with a link to a video about humor in the work place.
After watching this video I decided Andy is a very intelligent, funny guy.
Someone we can all laugh at. This is why JBN decided not to satirize
satire columnist Andy Borowitz. I’ve decided to read his bits to see how
humor is written. Don’t worry Junk Brothers News Fans, JBN will still
bring you the same style junk you love to discard. JBN will never
borrow Borowitz boring bits. JBN will almost never write as boring bits as
Borowitz. And JBN will almost
never match wits with the undisputed king of the bit, albeit boring, Andy
Borowitz.
