office is going to be confused with real news.
Here's a transcript of the segment:
----
[Split screen: showing Krusty with the American flag behind him; for his
Democratic opponent, the background was a Soviet flag. Devil horns were
superimposed on his head.]
Fox News Announcer: Welcome to Fox News, your voice for evil. Tonight, we'll
be interviewing the top two candidates for Springfield's 24th Congressional
district. For the Republicans, beloved children's entertainer, Krusty the
Clown. And for the Democrats, this guy.
Democrat: Hey, I have a name.
Fox News Anchor: Yes, I'm sure you do, comrade. I do appreciate your being
here. You're usually so mired in sleaze, it must be an effort to come down
to the studio.
Krusty: May I say something?
Fox News Anchor: Certainly, Congressman.
Democrat: He hasn't won yet!
Fox News Anchor: You make a very adulterous point. We'll now conclude this
debate with a Krusty campaign commercial.
