The Null Device blog: Comical Ali update

Sure enough, former Iraqi Information Minister Mohammad Saeed "Comical Ali" al-Sahaf has been offered a job with a TV station, Dubai's al-Arabiya. Let the bidding war begin.

Possible future careers for Comical Ali:

Assistant to Hillary Rosen in Baghdad
Replacement for [Robert Fisk/Michael Moore/insert despised goddamnliberal columnist here] (insert oh-so-witty snide remark about improved accuracy here)
by the same token, Guardian columnist... hang on, he's done that.
FOXNews reporter (in the interests of "balanced coverage")
TV entertainment show host
ad campaign star (I'm sure someone would fly him over, Mahir-fashion, to star in their ads. It's a pity CATS wasn't a real person; he'd have been great flogging car-auction web sites and such; can you imagine: "All your bargain are belong to us: www.e-ridiculousname.com". But I digress.)

Another prime genius. If you listen to the latest Hour of Slack they have suggested that he is (was) the Iraqi Minister for Slack.
