His reference to the mob is perfect!
Ironically, his show airs on cable so the cord cutters who would most benefit didn’t hear his brilliant argument for net neutrality.
There are ways.
John Oliver is indeed terrific.He nailed this issue through its forehead.
True. I don’t have cable or HBO and I just saw it. I guess I meant that it’s ironic that he’s calling out the cable companies when they are kind of responsible for his show happening.
They’re responsible for having made the decision to sell access to it. Oliver and his producers are responsible for making it. I’d rather pay him directly.
It’s an HBO Production, it’s their show. They can get another host when Oliver’s contract runs out if they want and make it “Last Week Tonight with [Insert Name].” Just like the Daily Show.
Usenet allows me to spite content providers. It is lovely
This is such a huge change in thinking, and I’m glad folks like Louis CK and Aziz Ansari are doing an end-run around big cable.
Totally awesome!
now if only Louie could make his show funny again…
