Jessica Lynch's Heroism Celebrated
With Crappy Made-for-TV Movie



HOLLYWOOD (DPI) - NBC today announced its intention to produce a shitty, third-rate movie about Iraq War hero Jessica Lynch.

Starring several has-been actors and featuring a predictable, overly-melodramatic storyline, the film will include numerous half-truths and lies in order to better appeal to the nation's lowest common denominator and to maximize ratings. The part of Lynch will be played by yet-to-be-determined former child star from an '80s sitcom whose career has been in a tailspin ever since. Ted Danson will play Lynch's non-existent physically abusive father, while Meredith Baxter will portray Lynch's completely fictitious alcoholic mother. Rick Shroeder will star as Lynch's made-up boyfriend who makes her choose between him and her country.

Producers of the film also promised to devote at least 90 minutes to Lynch's inspiring, tear-jerking yet untrue battles with breast cancer and muscular dystrophy.
