Imagine if Benjamin Franklin invented the TV newscast 250 years ago, and hired the Monty Python troupe to pull it off. This award-winning comic novel puts a historical twist on all the foibles of today's TV news operations in what Kirkus Reviews calls "A fine historical novel and a witty, effervescent satire of 18th-century London trash journalism."

Larry Brill spent most of his adult life as a TV news anchor and reporter. It is a remarkable vantage point to watch the world go by, and to try and make sense of both the tragedy and the craziness that surrounds us.
It's the craziness that captured his imagination as he transitioned into writing several novels and his acclaimed tongue-in-cheek series of life lessons based on quotes from primetime TV, song lyrics and classic Hollywood movies.
