Wouldn't it be nice if the election results themselves were fake news?

The Sunday Herald's TV listings offer a review of Donald Trump's impending inauguration as if it were an episode of The Twilight Zone and not our chilling reality.

“After a long absence, The Twilight Zone returns with one of the most ambitious, expensive and controversial productions in broadcast history," the Scottish paper's actual TV listing reads.

It continues:

"Sci-fi writers have dabbled often with alternative history stories — among the most common is the ‘What If The Nazis Had Won The Second World War’ setting — but this huge interactive virtual reality project, which will unfold on TV, in the press, and on Twitter over the next four years, sets out to build an ongoing alternative present."

"The story begins in a nightmarish version of 2017 in which huge sections of the US electorate have somehow been duped into voting to make Donald Trump president. It sounds far-fetched, and it is, but as it goes on it becomes more and more chillingly plausible."

The Heraldgoes on to give the show a pretty mixed review.
