People have been sending me links to this faux-reality TV show from Newsweek, The District, all week, and I mostly shrugged it off as something silly some production assistant put together to make the newsroom laugh. It’s not really all that clever of a spoof, though it was at least executed pretty well, and the guy who does the voice of Obama, Iman Crosson, is excellent. Somehow, though, I missed the real story here: Newsweek says it’s going to continue to air new episodes every Monday. This is something they’ve apparently devoted resources to for some time to come. It’s fine for a cute one-off idea, but a weekly video? Am I the only one who finds this to be kind of, I don’t know, embarrassing?
