I thought tonights Daily Show was kinda weak. Jon Stewart has never hid his support of Obama, but the coverage of the Wright controversy feels more like blatant campaigning.
What’s suppose to be satire to put a rational point of view about the whole thing feels more like they’re just pulling punches to spin this for Obama. I don’t think they’d do that for anyone else.
I trust the Daily Show for honest political news more then anything else – ’cause it’s earned it. I understand that it has a liberal point of view, but it usually cuts through all the rhetoric to point out just how funny/sad the truth really is.
But tonight caused doubt in me and I’m a little disappointed with that.
