Fox News Cafe Serves Up Prison Food
Fox is ready to roll out another new series tomorrow night, and we all know what that means: the inevitable cross-promotional theme menu at the on-lot Fox News Cafe. This time around, the network's crack marketing team had to tie the Cafe's offerings to Jonny Zero (tagline: "Now the city's toughest ex-con is helping those who can't help themselves"), a show that's likely to have the shelf-life of their Zero Guilt Salad. Some of the names smack of laziness. We assume a Personal "Jonny Calvo"ne is a calzone, but what does Fresh Outta Prison have to do with pizza? It's enough to make you put down your I Had To Befriend The Mobbed-Up Italians So That The Aryan Brotherhood Wouldn't Rape Me In The Shower Panini and send the PA out to fetch some Chinese food.
The menu follows after the jump.
