The popular "fake news" show The Daily Show on Comedy Central has more news than any of the nightly news programs. You wont see any three -legged dog stories on the Daily Show , no sir. In thirty minutes the Daily Show hits more news topics than CBS in a week. Yet they call it fake . Now that the Daily Show is one of the most watched shows by twenty-somethings and many twenty somethings now get thier news from a fake news show. Is that ok? I think so, any person of moderate intelligence can dicipher the sarcasm from the truth. What is fake news. Maybe when CBS with pretty Katy Couric has a segment called FREEDOM OF SPEECH where guest can speak on topics deemed acceptable by the producers of the show.Bill Maher,host of Politcally Incorrect was told that he could not talk about religion on a show called Freedom of Speech, Talk about hyprocrasy and fake news. So I implore you to quit watching the CBS,NBC,ABC,FOX,CNN, for a month and only get your news from The Daily Show and you will be just as informed about the world as if you watched the other nightly fake news programs. Or for God's sake watch C-span.
