On last night’s The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, the country’s most trusted newscaster borrowed a page from Glen Beck’s faulty Fox playbook and once again took to the chalkboard to give us exactly one million reasons why Fox News may not be as “fair and balanced” as they claim to be. Shocker.
On The Daily Show with Jon Stewart last night, Lewis Black took Glen Beck to task on his segment Back in Black after the completely rational (sarcasm) Fox News commentator took offense to Arizona’s immigration laws being compared to Nazi-ism even though anything remotely liberal he’s determined to be Nazi related. According to Dr. Black, it turns out that Beck has a severe case of Nazi Tourette’s Syndrome with symptoms that include playing “Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon, except there’s just one degree and Kevin Bacon is Hitler”. By golly, I believe the good doctor is 100% correct.
I’ll leave this week’s posts where I started them, in the trusty hands of Jon Stewart and his Daily Show taking on those mother foxers at Fox News. With Glen Beck on leave to take care of some internal organ issues, Jon does his best to step in and supply America with the classic Beckisms we so richly deserve: nonsensical associations; irrational thoughts; wild emotions paired with wild gesticulations; and of course, Beck’s bread and butter-the abundant use of fear mongering. Get well soon Glen!
Once again proving that they’re the world’s best source for fake news, The Onion’s own Onion News Network (ONN) is reporting today that the victim of a fatal car accident in Olathe, Kansas was tragically not Glenn Beck. So far it’s been a great week for political satire, not so much for Fox News.
