David Malki today may be on to something. Part of the reason that this election may be so screwy is that the writers’ strike has hampered the ability of Hollywood to comment on the primaries to the same degree that they usually did. Consequently, instead of watching people make jokes about Obama, Huckabee, Clinton et al., they’re actually having to go out and read about them and find out who these people are. It makes for an interesting election.
Ah, but the media simply spins and spins and spins and tries their best to turn it into a human interest story. It may be true that the Daily Show is just a comedy show — but it’s the Court Jester who speaks truth to power and that makes it worth more than any 24-hour news channel on the air.
