Jon Stewart Mocks Fox News' Election Night Meltdown: 'There Was An Avalanche on Bullsh*t Mountain'
This
video is of Jon Stewart poking fun at Fox News at the reporters that were so
certain Mitt Romney would win and how all the “evidence” could prove it. He
focused on election night and the time period when Fox News’ stated that Obama
was predicted to win Ohio and ultimately win the election concurrently when the
reporters were discussing how Romney will triumph and Ohio has NOT been called.
The reporter goes on and on about the demographics and how the people of Ohio
will lean towards Romney.
One
highlight of the election night coverage was when the man was done with his elaborate reasoning for a Romney victory, he was then asked by another reporter, “Is this just math that you do as a republican to make yourself feel better or
is this real?”
Even
though I found this video funny and entertaining I feel that it was biased and
only showed coverage that supported the side of Fox News being uninformed and
naïve. It did not disclose both sides or coverage that hurt their argument.

I have a problem with the production side of this video clip. Why on Earth are the producers and director of the FOX News show allowing people to go on talking about the Ohio election results as if they haven't come in yet? There must be some serious control room issues going on. (As a news production person myself) I have seen when all hell breaks loose and what happened in that clip is a perfect example. This was a terrible moment for a national network show.
