As an IU alumna, it bothers me that a fellow grad, who is himself kind of a loose cannon, would hire a guy who makes up stories.
Get ready for full-fledged fictional journalism, a new field in and of itself.

What the hell is HDNet?
I did a Google search and started to visit them, but Internet Explorer warned me that their security certification is registered to the wrong name. I wouldn't want to catch some kind of Rather Virus there, so I refrained from visiting their website.

So, Rather will reach 3 million homes. And people will pay to see him?

What's the frequency? I think you have to wear a tin foil hat with an antenna to receive this stuff.

The first episode will highlight a memo sent from a Texas Kinkos from David Stern instructing the officials to not let the Mavericks win against Miami. The second show will be from the Jerusalem records office with the original birth certificate for Jesus and Mary Magdalene's child. (strange that there would be so many copiers and a big handwritten sign saying "Jerusalem Birth Certificate Office brought to you by Kinkos" hanging from the wall there).

It will be as successful as Cuban's other show "The Benefactor."

HDNet owner Mark Cuban describes the show as "an opportunity to do news in what I like to call 'fearless mode,' what Dan calls 'with guts.' And what we call utter bulls***.
