From the Desk of Executive Insider – Summer School
Here at the CC Insider, we get a lot of email from our users with valuable feedback on how we can stop f**king around and start giving the people what they really want to see. And let's be honest, we can't read every one, but every week we get some gems that we have to pass on to Executive Insider, our beloved leader for his thoughts. Every week on Thursday he'll be greenlighting some of your ideas*, so who knows, this could be your big shot!

"Hey loved your Irish joke on joke of the day. Now how about some good ol (Ed. No) jokes or (Ed. Seriously, NO.) jokes just to keep it fair" — McDaniel
Dear McDaniel. Thanks so much for the kind words and a million thanks for this great suggestion. Obviously here at Comedy Central we pride ourselves on making sure that the world is completely fair and egalitarian. I mean, now that we’ve made an Irish joke, and evened up the score on countless centuries of slavery, economic oppression and the occasional genocide, of course we will be making sure there are some jokes about (Ed. No), (Ed. No), and naturally, (Ed. Oh, hell no). After all, if people don’t like being made fun of, why don’t they just own all the money and power in the world? Have they considered that?
"The word is going around the internet that Bush has issued an executive order blocking property of certain persons who threaten thestabilization efforts in Iraq.
Please do an excerpt on your show to explain the ramifications of this edict." — Judi
Hello there Judi. Thanks for your extremely useful suggestion, I just know this is going to be an extremely hilarious excerpt. And thanks for phrasing this in a way I think everyone responds well to, like an assignment from a high school civics class. Sure, some people might find this a boring and off putting email, but those people aren’t responsible for making the world laugh, and are probably all wound up worrying about being spoken to like an 11 year old. Cheers!

Yowza. A bunch of lawyers from Corporate just showed up and it looks like The Executive is going to be in a meeting for a while. Make sure to check back in next Thursday. As always, please write in with more great ideas to ccinsider@comedycentral.com!
