The Daily Show’s John Oliver reports on reporter Froma Harrop, President of the Civility Project, a group of journalists “aimed at restoring civility to America’s public discourse.” Given that she’s the 20th most read columnist in American print media, she’s apparently never read certain big words like “incongruity” and “misrepresentation.” Probably needless to say about any Daily Show clip, but this one is well worth watching.
