[annabanana]

(Broadcasting & Cable) _ While Comedy Central's The Daily Show with Jon Stewart and The Colbert Report have returned to the air without writers to carry on their political commentary on Washington, D.C., the show's writers will venture to Washington next week for a comic commentary on the serious subject of the writer's strike.

According to the Writers Guild of America, the writers will host a mock debate about the issue on Capitol Hill thanks to some sympathetic congress folk.
The debate will be held Jan. 23 in the Rayburn House Office Building and moderated by Dee Dee Myers http://www.broadcastingcable.com/article/CA527538.html, former Clinton White House press secretary and consultant/writer on NBC's The West Wing.
