As we reported last week, Daily Show correspondent Rob Riggle will be reporting from (real) Iraq every night this week. The Hollywood Reporter talked to Riggle and his producer over the weekend about what viewers can expect:
"They went with a USO sketch comedy tour known as "Operation Feel the Heat" -- armed with small, handheld cameras -- and also brought back video that will be used for "Daily Show" about the troops and their lives in Iraq."
"...the comedy this week from Iraq will focus on Riggle's escapades while there. "Of course what's going on is serious, and we take it very seriously," Riggle said. "Any humor we did, it's on me being an idiot. We know where the line is."
There's also some interesting stuff from a journalism expert about how Riggle has more combat experience and training than the average war correspondent. Read the rest here: Nothing Fake about 'Daily Show' in Iraq
