Puppet trial show
Cleveland TV station uses puppets to report on high-profile corruption trial
It's courtroom drama crossed with Sesame Street as a Cleveland television station barred from using cameras during a high-profile corruption trial depicts the highlights with a nightly puppet show.
It stars a talking squirrel "reporter" who provides the play-by-play in an exaggerated, "You won't believe this!" tone.
The trial has been a daily staple of front-page coverage in the Cleveland Plain Dealer newspaper and often leads TV newscasts in town.
