Jon Stewart Calls Fox News Out On Terrible Reporting, Reagan Hero-Worship
Tonight on The Daily Show, Jon Stewart basically called bulls**t on the way that Fox News has been reporting on President Obama's nuclear arms deal with Russia and their apparent inability to accurately report government policy. Video inside.
Stewart began the show by outlining in pretty stark detail just how clear the message is that Obama is trying to get across to the American people, mainly that the president's desire to reduce our nuclear arsenal by a third does not mean that our country would be left defenseless. Clearly, the good people at Fox News didn't get that memo.
Then, in an amazing one-two sucker punch aimed at America's leading cable news outlet, Stewart then took Fox to task over their almost fanatical love of Ronald Reagan, a love that clouds their judgment so much that it leads them to believe that they can not only misrepresent facts concerning current events but also the entirety of American history!
I'd say this leaves the score at Stewart: Eleventy-Million; Fox News, 0.
