On the latest Last Week Tonight, John Oliver took on the current migrant crisis in Europe to call out the troubling way some world leaders, including "noted swine fellatio enthusiast" David Cameron, and the media choose to characterize the situation.
"When you're dealing with a mass of people that large, you really want to be a little careful with how you describe them," Oliver said.
"Here in the US, some in the media have chosen to reduce the migrant population to one single stereotype," he adds, before showing a Fox News clip featuring the misleading caption, "Terrorists Inbound? Taking refugees could open door to jihadists."
Now I know what you're thinking, "Holy crap this video is almost 18 minutes long! That is an eternity in internet time, I can sit still long enough to watch this whole damn thing!"
I both hear you and understand your hesitance.
So I will promise you that if you watch this entire video you will have a warm feeling at the end that will make your evening just that much better.
It has to do with an amazing young woman named Noujain Mustafa, and it is well worth your time to see.
I promise.
If you did not watch John Oliver's report on the immigration crisis in Europe well you need to drop everything and do so right now.
