You have a face for radio

The show: Ally McBeal
The episode: "They Eat Horses, Don't They?" First aired in 1998 and now available on DVD (second season, first disc).
What happened: Ling (Lucy Liu) sues on-air personality Harold Wick (Wayne Newton as a thinly veiled Howard Stern) for contributing to sexual harrassment at a plant she manages. After a judge refuses to dismiss the case, Nelle (Portia de Rossi) convinces Ling to drop the charge and issue a statement at a press conference explaining that she's dropping the case because she's just become aware of an unspecified physical or psychological deficiency Harold Wick has. Soon after, Harold invites Ally to appear on his show. To everyone's surprise, Ally agrees. As she's being made up, Ally expresses surprise at that the show is not just on the radio.
Meanwhile, John defends a restaurateur sued for serving horse to a diner who enjoyed the meat before knowing what it was.
Why it doesn't quite make sense: So Ally is sometimes quite disconnected from reality. But even she should know that Harold Wick's show is not just a radio show. She was watching it on TV with Renee in their apartment earlier in the episode! It's probably the director who's to blame for this one; the script probably did not call for any image of Harold Wick as Ally and Renee listened to his show. Or maybe Ally was just making small talk.
