This guy seems to be quite the dork. And I hate the plaid-shirt-with-a-tie-and-suit look.

Yes, but Bill Clinton is.

The left wing media made it into the “Monica Lewinsky” scandal, to keep Bill’s name out of it. The goal was to frame her as a slut and Bill as the innocent horny victim.

They were protecting Bill, they threw the 22 year old intern under the bus. Honestly, I am surprised she DIDN’T commit suicide or arkancide....

And this hypocritical dork is out there blaming republicans

Disgusting

They need to toss this goofball foreigner back to where he came from like a teabag.... along with that other South African loudmouth Trevor Noah.

Hey Hypocritical Dork

Where are you on Covington?

You want to talk about private lives that are destroyed because of the media, lets talk about a high school kid who’s only crime was wearing a red Trump MAGA hat. Made up story to bring hate and violence against high school kids

Where are you Johny Oliver boy? Going to apologize to those boys? Oh wait, it does not fit your narrative.

Did Billy Boy ever apologize to Monica Lewinsky? Did the US media? I rest my case Johny Oliver.

Political garbage masquerading as moral outrage

Of course he is, but he is still 100000x funnier then Johny Hypocrite Oliver. We can’t find American comedians we have to outsource to Britain now?

He is eager to remind his viewers about how late-night show hosts treated Monica Lewinsky back in the day.

Not sure what this transgender fool is saying, I never heard of her/him/it, but Hollywood/Fake News Did NOT call for Clinton to be IMPEACHED or Charged Criminally for his slutty behavior. NOBODY DID! Obviously the hormone treatment has affected her brain.

Back then I still watched Saturday Night Live. They were brutal on Linda Tripp. They had John Goodman in a wig with makeup portraying her as a rat.

Oliver apparently did not say enough about the Covington kids to make the list of the top 50 Lin Wood is suing on Nick Sandmann’s behalf, but I have no doubt he was snarky towards them.

I counted the jokes one night during Jay Leno’s monologue when I think Bush was running against John Kerry. The breakdown was four or 5 to 1 making fun of the Republican over the democrat candidate. In addition, very seldom if ever do you see a late night talk show host make fun of a Democrat for lack of intelligence as they do with the Republicans. Bill Clinton was a perfect example. They made fun of his lecherous nature, wink wink nudge nudge, you know what I mean?

John Oliver is a self righteous dick. Plain and simple. As are Colbert and Kimmel. That damned "Daily Show" pretty much wrecked comedy for a generation with all those "let's make up fake stories about people and then tell jokes that make them even more fake while we smirk at the camera and all our courtesans laugh" fools.

Corden and Fallon tried to stay neutral but New York and LA leftists will not have it. They were made to tack left HARD or give up their careers. They toed the line.

Leftism is why we can't have nice things.

“Leno’s a fraud and always has been. He can go F himself.”

And why are you agreeing with John Oliver, of all people?

But he could have used that as a more recent example of the media going after an unknown to make a story.

He had to dig up a Clinton sex story from 1996 to make his point. How sad and pathetic is that?

And he tries the paint it as a right wing media destroying poor Monica Lewinsky, but in reality it was a left wing media protecting Bill by destroying Monica Lewinsky.

The left cared about only one thing, power, and Bill Clinton was that power. He must be protected and defended at all costs. If it wasn’t for Matt Drudge, the story would have been buried. Once it was out, it was attack attack Monica 24/7.

That was the power of the Clinton smear machine.
