Note to Indiana Politcos: If Your Staff Schedules an Interview with the Daily Show...
It's a Spoof. Governor of Illinois Didn't Know.
Illinois Governor Rod Blagoevich had an interview with Comedy Central's The Daily Show on his schedule.
He had never seen the show. He didn't know the name of the cable network had the word "comedy" in it. Kevin McDermott of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch has the story of the Governor and the interview which began to take an unfamiliar turn for him.

Gov. Rod Blagojevich, giving an interview to a television crew in Chicago recently, first suspected something was amiss when the interviewer cut him off in mid-sentence to intone sternly: "I'll be in charge of what my listeners get to hear."
