When a Midwest Newsman Makes It to the Big Time

By John J. O'Connor
John O'Connor
NBC's "News Radio" is off to an enticing start. And with good reason. The sitcom's credentials are definitely A-list, at least in television's universe. The producers are Brad Grey and Bernie Brillstein, whose credits include HBO's "Larry Sanders Show." The creator is Paul Simms, formerly a writer for Garry Shandling and David Letterman. And the stars are dripping in contemporary hip. Dave Foley of the comedy troupe Kids in the Hall plays Dave, the baby-faced man from Wisconsin who hits Manhattan to be news director of all-news radio station WNYX. Phil Hartman, formerly of "Saturday Night Live," is bringing his delicious sultan-of-smarm manner to the character of Bill, the oily news announcer. And Andy Dick, who has worked prominently with Ben Stiller and Mr. Letterman (he plays Donnie, the fawning page), is Matthew, the hypersensitive apprentice who's sure he is going to be fired for things like his unfortunate on-air mispronunciation of Buttafuoco.
