Jon Stewart on Tuesday went through CNN’s long list of news segments within the news: “political gut check, no talking points, rapid fire, CNN = politics update, end point” and on and on.
Which brought Stewart to his own show’s next segment: Why?! “Why are you doing this? Do you believe your daily 11:23 a.m. political pop is appointment viewing?”
The last straw came in the form of CNN’s rock star segment — awarded at one point to Martin Luther King Jr., for “changing history” and so much more.
“That is fucked up,” Stewart said. “Do you have any idea what a demotion ‘rock star’ is for Dr. King? What the hell happened to CNN?”
