Daily Show host blasts media for treating the “most mundane bulls**t” as “Earth-shattering”
Comedian Jon Stewart on Monday launched into a fiery rant aimed at the media coverage of former President Donald Trump’s hush money trial in the latest episode of “The Daily Show.”
Stewart spent a portion of Monday’s segment lambasting media outlets for their coverage of Trump’s criminal trial unfolding in Manhattan, in which prosecutors have alleged that he falsified business records to cover up a $130,000 payment to adult film star Stormy Daniels shortly before the 2016 election.
“This trial will obviously be a test of the fairness of the American legal system, but it’s also a test of the media’s ability to cover Donald Trump in a responsible way. A task they have acknowledged they’ve performed poorly in the past,” Stewart said before showing a montage of clips from notable outlets like CNN and MSNBC acknowledging that they need to give less obsessive attention to the former president’s every antic.
I lost respect for him when he took Apple’s money, it’s no secret what kind of company Apple is. I wasn’t surprised when they took China’s side over John Stewart, I’m surprised Stewart didn’t see it coming. Work for one of the most evil corporations, expect evil shit.
Edit: instead of downvoting, use your words
No one is perfect. All the other media company’s are just as evil.
