Fox Entertainment’s announcement Wednesday that it has hired Lisa Simpson to oversee its talent relations would probably make a great episode of “The Simpsons” ― only it’s real.

An actual woman named Lisa Simpson is now a senior vice president at the place where cartoon Lisa Simpson ― a woke feminist, environmentalist and saxophonist who’s 8 years old ― has wielded plenty of clout for decades.

let's hope she's not got parents named Marge and Homer, a brother name Bart and a sister name Maggie or a granddad name Abraham or aunts named Patty and Selma. i bet she had to deal with jokes and references to the cartoon character of the same namesake.

anyway, congrats to her.
