While I agree the idea of "Brian Williams' Pants-on-Fire Night" is funny, there are a ton of other lying douchebags out there more deserving.

They don't have to bill it as such, but they could have a whole infield of Fox "personalities" in masks and costumes. They could have a 7th inning Stretch the Truth feature.
