what i liked- Pray. For. Mojo. Lisa rescuing Bart from Willie, the ending with Kidz Newz being canceled, pretty much every scene with homer and mojo, lisa being jealous of bart's success on the news show, amongst other things.
decent outing from season 9. is it perfect? no. is it a fun episode? of course. so overall my final grade is going to be a B+ or so, i think is fair for this episodemoreless
AIRED:
Bart becomes a star on the new kids' news segment on Krusty's show by modeling himself after Kent Brockman and sticking to human interest stories. However, Lisa sees through Bart's phoniness and sets out to expose him.

TRIVIA (3)
ADD TRIVIA-
Bart mispronouces Kearney's name on air (instead of saying "kur-nee", he pronounces it the way it's spelled), suggesting that he is reading from cue cards and that the news brodcast is live and open to errors.
-
Syndication shortens the scene where Nelson makes flatulent sounds with his armpit on camera, then switches cameras to continue making the sounds.
-
When Marge complains about Mojo's health, Homer says, "What do you want? His cholesterol's through the roof." The closed captioning keeps the latter, but replaces, "What do you want?" with "Give him a break, Marge".
