Andy Cobb and Second City Launch Political Video Network

Posted on 08:32 by Unknown

Andy Cobb and The Second City are happy to present a new online home for original satirical video by The Partisans --just in time for the nascent nastiness of the 2012 election cycle. The Partisans can be found on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/thepartisanscomedy.

Andy Cobb's politically charged videos have received over 10 million views and been called "a blast of cathartic humor" by Huffington Post, "must-see TV for inside the beltway bloggers and journalists" by Politico, and "brilliant" by Andrew Sullivan, and seen on CNN, MSNBC, FOX, NPR, ABC, Current, and many more.

The new site will feature alumni of the legendary Second City in rapid reaction, topical comedy for the current campaign season, with the motto "harsh satire for dangerous times."
