Last night, The Daily Show’s Jon Stewart fixed his legacy as a comedic faux journalist. Instead of drooling over guest former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, as he did with former presidential candidate John Kerry in 2004, Stewart gave Clinton the book, schmook, let's get to the presidential stuff routine.
How good is it? It's got everything a lady could want: Jessica Williams in top form. Jon Stewart growing agitated over gender-related injustice. A subtle shoutout to "Not All Men!" The Daily Show's take on sexual assault is so good I feel like I need to lie down for awhile after watching it.
Karl Rove is up to his old tricks again. The Republican strategist-cum-pundit recently accused Hillary Clinton of brain damage, then backpedaled. Thankfully, The Daily Show's Jon Stewart was front and center to make fun of Rove and #brainghazi on Tuesday night.
There's a three syllable word Fox News is obsessed with lately and nope, this time we're not talking about Benghazi, said Jon Stewart on Thursday's edition of The Daily Show.
The Daily Show may’ve lost John Oliver to HBO, where he can curse all he wants, but there’s a new correspondent on deck, Michael Che.
Last night, John Oliver made a surprise return to his old Daily Show stomping grounds to complain about their current representation of British people (Jessica Williams in a monocle) and rub in how great life has been since leaving the show to produce and host Last Week Tonight at the magical TV land (where you can…
Fox News' Sean Hannity has devoted five segments over the past week to EXPOSING what's REALLY going on at Spring Break in America, almost as if the institution of SPRING BREAK FOREVER isn't already decades old and well-explored.
The movie Noah has stirred up all kinds of hubbub over whether it's "Biblically accurate" or a godless Hollywood perversion of the almighty word of God. However, The Daily Show makes a good point: It would appear some critics aren't going off the King James or New International versions, but rather their rosy memories…
"Princeton Mom" Susan Patton has been everywhere lately spouting her controversial (if "controversial" = laughably old-timey) views about how young women should be focusing less on their careers and more on nailing down eligible bachelors and earning their MRS.
Last night The Daily Show's Jon Stewart took on the Christ-filled fiasco that is Hobby Lobby’s religious freedom case in the Supreme Court this week. Yay, bring on the (sad) laughter!
Ever wanted to watch Mitch McConnell smiling, set to the dulcet sounds of "Pony," by Ginuwine? The answer to that question is almost certainly no, but such a video now exists, and it will haunt your dreams for weeks.
Like Angela Davis before her, Anita Hill was not trying to become a symbol for any movement. But existing in the shadows wasn’t her path once she was subpoenaed in 1991 to testify against then-Supreme Court Justice nominee Clarence Thomas about his penchant for sexual harassment.
One of the most repeated shouting points against Obamacare's birth control mandate comes from politicians on the right who claim that "their" tax dollars shouldn't go to support "sexual choices" of women who use whore pills. Meanwhile, the same politicians are eerily silent about the millions of dollars per year the…
Courageous outlier/former New Jersey Superior Court Judge Andrew Napolitano isn't afraid to voice unpopular opinions no matter how factually inaccurate they are. The Fox News senior judicial analyst recently expressed some pretty out there (and entirely ignorant) thoughts on Abraham Lincoln and the American Civil War,…
Last night, Daily Show correspondent Jessica Williams reflected on how, in light of the Michael Dunn verdict, black teens can protect themselves from getting shot to death by scared white guys — don't leave your house, have friends, or listen to music. This rant is so good, Williams ended it with a mic drop. As well…
Thus far, the 2014 Olympic Games have been dominated by talk not of the incredible physical prowess on display from athletes around the world, but of the many failures of host city Sochi, Russia. Unsafe arena conditions, Bob Costas' eye infection, stray dogs crashing the opening ceremonies, hotels with construction so…
The discussions surrounding raising the minimum wage always bring out the best in people, don't they? Take financial commentator Peter Schiff, for example. Sam Bee of The Daily Show sat down with him recently to discuss strikes amongst fast food workers and he brought up some very interesting (and compassionate!)…
Oh, no! Conservative talk show host Sean Hannity doesn't feel welcome in his home state after New York Governor Andrew Cuomo stated that those who are "right-to-life, pro-assault-weapon, anti-gay" no longer are welcome here and now Hannity is threatening to move to Florida or Texas! What will the people of New York…
If you're a woman, you've likely already heard the good news (it should have arrived in a tiny folded up note that appears magically inside your own vagina). Thanks to recent events, we run all the shit now! Car companies? Run by ladies. The military? Boom. Women. The federal chair? He is now a she. It's our world,…
Last night on The Daily Show, Samantha Bee debuted (or maybe "unleashed" is a better word) her one woman show about the passion and intrigue surrounding Fox News talk show The Five. What happens when archetypal good girl Dana Perino meets quintessential bad boy Greg Gutfeld? Electricity ensues.
