plus just to 'draw the picture' for you pnue, when I say "the point is he doing comedy" i am making the same point you claim 'went over my head' - i.e. "His job is to be a comedian first on a comedy channel." That means that when comedy and journalism come into conflict, he is going to choose comedy - and rightly so. Sorry, maybe I'm wrong but I when I post here I assume everyone is following along and doesn't need everything spelled out like this. You go on to say "That being said if your most trusted news source is a comedy show (as it was for daily show at one point for lefts), then you're doing it wrong." - Well welcome to the point Pnue. The only reason I got involved in this thread is because Lando basically defended Oliver as a trusted news source. so yeah, tell me again that I missed the point. |
