Tucker Carlson and Greg Gutfield do a hilarious satirical segment after the media lost their mind over Tucker's Trump eclipse joke.

Now, luckily many in the media were watching last night and they instantly understood that we were not kidding at all.There was no irony or sarcastic inflection in what we said because we're every bit as self serious and humor deficient as any Washington journalist and probably almost as dumb.
We were indeed lavishing praise on a President for staring at the Sun.
Nathan McDermott of CNN understood that immediately and provided video to silence doubters who suspected we might be joking.
Claire Phipps of The Guardian wasn't fooled either, as she explained at length to her readers, nor were writers at HuffPo, Mediaite or GQ all of whom wrote pieces about it.
Brooke Binkowski, the managing editor at snopes.com, went on Twitter to assure the public that, "This is not satire. This is not satire. This is not satire." Well, given that Snopes is one of a handful of outlets working with Facebook to decide what stories are "fake news" and should be suppressed it's impressive that Binkowski was able to know the truth without even bothering to contact us to check. Because that's journalism.
Speaking of journalism it is now time for a FOX News Alert -- Lost in the excitement over yesterday's remarkable sun-staring feat were several other pieces of Donald Trump related news and we'd like to bring those to you now. We will speak slowly for the benefit of those Washington based journalists who might be watching tonight.
First, the National Institutes of Health has announced that Donald Trump's tears can cure human disease. Unfortunately for science, Donald Trump has never once cried.
Meanwhile, Apple says it has designed a new Presidential version of its popular iPhone. This model comes with no backspace button because Donald Trump does not make mistakes. Nor does the device have a clock since Donald Trump decides what time it is.
Also, some sad news to tell you tonight. While golfing at his Mar-a-Lago resort last week President Trump was bitten by an exotic and deadly Eurasian pit viper. Unfortunately, after five excruciating days, the snake has died.
We'll leave it to journalists to decide if those are actual Donald Trump stories or whether they are Chuck Norris jokes.
I meant to add (video only) after the title but it slipped my mind. Sorry about that.
What is it? I can’t see Twitter.
That series of photos was the Tweet.
“Trump was bitten by an exotic and deadly Eurasian pit viper. Unfortunately, after five excruciating days, the snake has died”
LOL!!! I love how Trump has become the new Chuck Norris.
That is the best thing I’ve ever seen!
Absolutely crazy

Gutfield bum[
We need to take the list of 100 Chuck Norris jokes and put President Trump in instead.
Tucker is so much better than BOR. What an improvement for Fox News.
Jon Stuart was so successful because he was able to use humor to make fun of the opposition. That would be us.
Tucker and Gutfield are also good at it. Fortunately we aren’t on the receiving end this time.
As the Pendulum Swings. Should be a new daytime Soap Opera.
Trump stared at the sun and the sun blinked.
!
Has any libtard ever stared directly at Donald Trump?
