History

A television pundit who realized just how many viewers he could get by blaming various scapegoats for the world's ills, and settled on the LNH as a target.

Once, he was the number one rated show on Net.News.Network, but as other pundits ate away at his viewership, he ended up peddling dodgy supplements to a dwindling base of diehards.

Personality

Prejudiced, especially against the LNH. Loves to whip up anger over one issue or another.

Powers and Abilities

Basically just a political talk show host, though he holds a nefarious control over his viewers' minds. Can politicize even the most innocuous of things.

Appearance

An older, balding white man with thick glasses and a sour expression.

Context

Originally existed to parody political commentator John McLaughlin; eventually became a parody of right-wing commentators in general (taking the place of characters like Limbaugh Man).
