as posted by the channel

David Rubenstein: "Satire is a lost art, a bit...A difference between a satire and a humorous, you would say is?"

Christopher Buckley: "Hundreds of thousands of sales. George Kaufman, the great Broadway impresario and and writer, I think defines satire is the thing that opens on Saturday and closes on Sunday."
