Press
Kayvan Novak is the man of a thousand prosthetic faces in this occasionally amusing, occasionally excruciating news spoof. Nine times Pulitzer prize-winning anchor Douglas "Digger" Daley is your host - tonight presiding over a studio debate between a soft-drinks manufacturer, a sports star and a nutritionist. Elsewhere, the satire continues at a casting session for ethnically diverse Hollywood actors.
