Did you know Aaron McGruder will have his own show this fall on FOX?
I found the info buried in this article:

McGruder, who graduated from the University of Maryland with an African-American studies degree, has written a best-selling coffee-table collection of his strips called "A Right to be Hostile."

He's reportedly developing with Sony a prime-time animated series based on "Boondocks" for Fox. It's slated for the fall.

1. Hrmm...
I love the Boondocks, but trying to convert a comic strip into a series usually doesn't work very well.

2. I saw this show! McGruder kicked ass!!
Armstrong Williams was positively apoplectic as Aaron McGruder repeatedly stated that he thought Condi Rice was a murderer.

"Well, she was only doing her job, but she's really good at it."

Even Juan Williams looked to be having a coronary! :bounce: :bounce:
