    How any reasonabl
    His channel is the only one mentioning the mob. Fear? How about taxpayers getting their country back. Four straight weeks of violent protests. A lot of business people and homeowners didn't sign up for that in Portland, Seattle, New York, Chicago. At least he has the guts to mention the mob.

    He’s an entertainer.

    Anything on Fox and MSNBC is complete tripe and shit and anyone who calls themself and current or former professional journalist should be embarrassed if they watch it.

    The only thing like this I will watch is Last Week Tonight because it does not set off red flags from my journalistic ethics teaching.

    Really? Stopped watching him because he makes my ethics alarm bells ring like mad. Seemed to me all he does is cut up other outlets original reporting and cut in with “fucking” for laughs

    His 20 minutes on mobile homes is pretty damn solid work.

    I know he plays for laughs, but he states a point and proves it.

    Proves it with reporting from Local 12 news, the Seattle Times and Bloomberg among others. Does he or his research staff do any original reporting? They’re aggregrating and inserting a few jokes. Not my cup of tea.

    I liked him better when he always wore a bow tie. He reinvited himself and achieved a rarity -- a successful second act to his career.

    Is there anyone close to being as far to the left with a regular cable news presence as those on the right are? Let alone hosting a show?
