News
wins Emmy
By John Breneman
The Humor Gazette/IBS News cleaned house at last night’s
Emmy awards ceremony with imaginary newsman Reid Page taking
home the statue for Worst Fake Anchorman on a Satire Series.
Page, reading his acceptance speech from a teleprompter with
expert inflection, thanked fellow anchormen Jon Stewart and
Ted Baxter, and said he owed his creative lifeforce to such
diverse inspirations as Will Rogers, Kurt Vonnegut and Gandhi.
IBS News also won Best Animated War Coverage for "SpongeBob
SquareBodyArmor" and the critically acclaimed "Sleeping
With the Yemeni" was named Best Made-for-TV Terror
Drama, beating out "Last Tango in Pakistan," "Man
in the Iron Mosque," "Allah Doesn’t Live Here Anymore"
and "Al Qaeda on the Western Front."
Humor Gazette Productions collected trophies for Best Insect
Documentary ("Desperate Houseflies") and Most Repugnant
Comedy Series ("Everybody Loves Jacko"), and for
its epic 16-part miniseries "The Life and Death of Herman
Munster."
On the red carpet, IBS News anchor Reid Page confided with
E celebrity interviewer Star Jones that he was wearing vintage
Air Jordans, Puff Daddy underwear and a
"gasoline suit" by Dan Rather. Momentarily
disoriented by the paparazzi, Page blurted out, "I’d
just like to thank Geraldo, George W. Bush and your mother."
