When he's not penning satirical pieces for the New Yorker, Andy Borowitz runs the Borowitz Report, a go-to site for political wonks looking for their fake news fix. Tonight, he evaluates Obama's first year with a top notch panel including fellow New Yorker writers Calvin Trillin and Jeffrey Toobin, along with outspoken comedian Janeane Garofalo. As a commentator on CNN, Toobin is the de facto ambassador for mainstream journalism, while Garofalo voices the frustrations of the left. Trillin and Borowitz should have no trouble skewering both sides, and regardless what they end up talking about, it should be far more enlightening than any of the cable news evals that have dominated the air in recent days.
