Shoot The Messenger is a satirical wrap-up of the week’s news from the brain of Daily Show Co-creator Lizz Winstead. A live sketch-comedy show incorporating multi-media elements, it gives us the world as seen through the filters of the fictional producers and on-air talent of The Flagship news show “Wake-up World"the worst twenty-four hour cable news network . There will be indictment, both hilarious and scathing - not only of the newsmakers, but of the news media that molds them. Shoot The Messenger will give the audience a glimpse into the behind the scenes decision making at a news network, and the process that brings those decisions to the air. Of course not everyone in the media gets a flogging; those who are doing great work will be celebrated. Each week Lizz’ll interview a media figure who digs deep and gets it right.
