Mackris v. O'Reilly: an opera in 31 parts.
Composer Igor Keller has written an opera in the style of Handel's Messiah that touches on all the embarrassing details mentioned in the Oct. 2004 sexual harassment suit producer Andrea Mackris brought against Fox News host Bill O'Reilly. Performances will be held on January 12 and 13 at the University of Washington in Seattle.

1. Surely this is a joke, I thought.

Then found a couple of sites mentioning Igor's work and some early notoriety for it.
Too bad I'm not in the Seattle area. Sounds like a hoot!
Handel's Messiah is an oratorio, btw, not an opera. Us music majors are slightly picky about correct cataloging. ;)

Edited for spelling and just to add,
I wish I had a piece with bad sexual innuendo in my own repertoire!
