The local Fox affiliate is airing "Bob Roberts" |
|
I can't decide if they have a rebel working there - or if they just don't get the movie and think it's about an inspirational (from their viewpoint) politician.

He's stated that he didn't want conservative candidates with no sense of irony to appropriate the songs for their campaigns (which is a shame, because it would have been a classic comedy album).

Lots of great shots of Pittsburgh in that one. And the women's choir backing him up at one point was from my alma mater.
