The daily show is the essence of political humor, who would have ever thought that something as boring as politics could be funny. however, every time I watch the show it makes me laugh.

Political Satire is hard to bring humor to if you are not involved in politics and you have a comedian mind set. The daily show has a great job with both knowledge of the politics and the humor. if you’ve never seen the show once again i will say, once you watch on episode you will be hooked.
The Cobert show doesn’t have the shabaaz and the mixture of humor like the daily show. Their political satire could use a little work one look at that show an you ill be turned off forever.

Political satire is not as easy as people make it seen, however its how the information is presented to the audience keeps us interested in politics.
