On Daily Show, Hall & Oates Sing Tribute to Fox News' Alan Colmes
December 12, 2008 | 12:25 p.m
Yesterday, Steve Krakauer of TVNewser reported that as of January 12th, Fox News' 9 p.m. show Hannity & Colmes will be renamed Hannity (reflecting the recent decision on the behalf of longtime co-host Alan Colmes to step down from his co-anchor chair).
Last night, '80s radio staples Hall & Oates appeared on Comedy Central's The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, where the two-man band offered a musical tribute to Mr. Colmes.
"Anytime you need a token liberal," they sang. "Nothing but a body to fill the chair."
"The barest shadow of a person," they harmonized. "Alan Colmes is always there."
