But slowly they're trying to work up a political base instead of being unbiased.

@Penny

Here's a new topic, why are left wing women so uncomfortable when it comes to this part of race relations?

A lot of them cant get over the fact that they 'hate' racism but then they let that same racist mentality rule their dating lives. Everyone else just seems to either accept it or ignore it.

My theory is that it comes down to simple hypocrisy and idealism, they want to preach to other people how they shouldn't judge, but they dont want to a put a quarter of that effort into confronting their own biases, so it leaves them in this awkward position when they have to explain why they don't date asians/indians or whatever.

You were expecting a pulp talk show with the purpose to entertain that is hosted by left-leaning comedians to be “non-biased”? I’m sorry, but if you thought that any of these shows (which are affectedly comedian soapboxes) were designed to be objective, nonpartisan, or fair then you went into with a false expectation founded on naïve thought.

Are you serious?

There is no obligation by entertainers to be objective pundits. None. Zero.

One can only hope, at least.

<Snipped quote by POOHEAD189>
If you want nonpartisan commentary, find a commentator or pundit who is nonpartisan. There are plenty to find. You will not find them among liberal comedians and to think otherwise is a naïve hope. Do not get your “satire” from late night pulp television.

Well it's only recently, like the past year, that I really even looked. A few of the shows actually did good for awhile though.

I’d argue that the majority of late night comedians are pretty abysmal at politics, but then again it’s pretty easy to poke holes in Trump’s decisions to the point that Seth Meyers is doing it. The only one out of the network hosts that is remotely worth watching is Colbert, but his satirical skills (even from his liberal point-of-view) have softened since he made the move from Comedy Central to CBS. Beyond network television the only real options you have that are interesting as well as entertaining would be Oliver and Noah. So that’s three comedians out of a group of much more. Fallon and Meyers should go back to acting like teenagers and doing rap skits with Justin Timberlake and so forth because their political views have about as much depth and worth as their comedic talents.

but from my experience Colbert

<Snipped quote by POOHEAD189>

'member that time Jimmy Kimmel got in trouble for not hating trump enough?

<Snipped quote by POOHEAD189>
How long have you been watching him? This is important since like I said, he has recently softened and not been as on point as he used to. If it is only recently I would not blame you but as someone who has been watching him since his The Daily Show days I would say this is not a particularly astute observation.

I've been a fan of Colbert since 2004 or 5. But I am counting him from when he started late night to now. He makes unfounded claims of Trump being found with a smoking gun for instance and saying he'll be in jail by friday, when we know that won't happen. Stuff like that.

Are you claiming your political parties aren't the same crap?

<Snipped quote by Dynamo Frokane>

My theory is simpler -- that's not racism, any more than being gay is sexist.

DAE HORSESHOE THEORY!?

What is DAE I do not know your mind numbing acronyms

And the horseshoe theory while semi-credible is not what I was referring to.
