A Good Essay About a Sleazy Show
Way to go, Chicago. Just when we thought "Jerry Springer" was gone, we'll get a dose of more sleaze to replace it: "The Bill Cunningham Show." The press release doesn't talk about the sleazy content of the show, but an article about a lawsuit that the show got early on features a video and description that reveal how they're trying to appeal to the lowest common denominator.
In fact, the show was so bad, the test run failed. But it doesn't matter. They're planning to release it next year, and the very friendly Larz from Chicagoland Radio and Media has a great opinion piece about the show and its creators. Good thing there's still a media that watches the media.
