The Associated Press is reporting that CNN's Headline News channel is launching a comedy show called Not Just Another Cable News Show.
CNN Headline News isn't the first place you'd look for comedy, but the network says it will try to have fun with some of the clips in its news archives.
Not Just Another Cable News Show will premiere April 5, the network said Monday.
"It's an entertaining way to recall some of the more memorable moments captured on video," said Ken Jautz, executive vice president at CNN Worldwide.
The 30-minute show will be on Saturdays at 7 p.m. ET, then repeated twice later in the evening. It will be followed each time by News to Me, a series that shows hot Web videos.
The Comedy Central Insider notes that Fox News also has a comedy show called 1/2 Hour News Hour. Both of these channels are supposed to be about news so something seems very wrong about news networks attempting Daily Show type of funnies.
