Here's the Daily Show Segment on Ferguson You've Been Waiting For
Jon Stewart is back after the Daily Show's annual summer hiatus, and it seems he missed a few things, like the police killing of unarmed black teen Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo. So, better late than never, we finally get Stewart's take on Ferguson—specifically, his outrage at the way the shooting and subsequent protests have been covered by Fox News.
Stewart takes Bill O'Reilly, Sean Hannity, and other Fox commentators to task for trying to downplay the role of race in the Ferguson situation, and failing to acknowledge that the experience of living in America while black might be a wee bit different from their own experiences as rich white people.
"You really do have no fucking idea, do you?" Stewart asks, after playing a clip of Hannity lecturing about how to handle being stopped by the police.
"Race is there, and it is a constant. You're tired of hearing about it? Imagine how fucking exhausting it is living it."
