Late Night Video — God Made A Factory Farmer
Reboot of the sappy Paul Harvey Farmer commercial from the Superbowl — this time with a major readjustment for reality (approx. 2 minutes)
Late Night Video — An Immigration Protest from the Only People Entitled to One
It is a little raucous, but this video is of a Native American reacting to an illegal immigration protest. If you listen closely at the beginning you even get to hear the “I’m part Native American” deflection:
Late Night Video — Sam Harris and Cory Booker Debate Guns on Maher’s Show
Watch closely and maybe you’ll agree that these two aren’t exactly having the same conversation. And where did this idea that any gun laws must be 100% effective? We don’t have this standard for any other legislation….
Late Night Video — Kid President Gives You a Pep Talk
I love this kid. This might be the best video of the year — already. It is hard to pick my favorite bits, but the You Can Cry About It or You Can Dance About It works as advice I especially needed recently. Kid President wants you to know that the time to be awesome is now (approx. 3.5 minutes long):
Late Night Video — The Daily Show Investigates the Death of Investigative Journalism
This is so much awesome — John Oliver doing the Daily Show investigative report into why investigative reporting is dying in American newsrooms. Once more — The Daily Show commits an act of news that neither the news networks or newspeople could manage (approx. 6 minutes):
Late Night Video — Unions Are Needed
Awesome rant by this MSNBC commentator (with the cringeworthy name of) Krystal Ball. She reminds us that one of the things not touched on in President Obama’s inaugural speech was the health of unions, and reminds us that the war on unions coincides with the stagnation of American wages. This video is about 1.5 minutes long:
Late Night Video — Bill Maher’s Theory on the Problem with American Masculinity
Oh yes, this is hysterical (and about 5 minutes long):
Late Night Video — Honda Anti-Theft Negotiator
Very funny, but I would buy one — seriously. About 2 minutes long:
Late Night Video — ‘It’s not your Second Amendment rights that are under attack — it’s all the other ones’
Bill Maher — when he’s right, he’s right.
Late Night Video — The Punk Bloggers at Media Matters
I say that with love, of course! Media Matters is one of my favorite media resources — and they’ve put together a delightful compilation of just how much they’ve been able to get under the skin of Fox Noise this year:
Late Night Video — EXXON Hates Your Children
The Other 98% has created this ad that sounds as though it will air nationally next week. It is meant to point out the absurdity of giving EXXON $10B in taxpayer subsidies while climate change is making itself felt. It also helps that this is circulating during the “fiscal cliff” BS — if John Boehner is looking for cuts to save money, here is one to start with.
Late Night Video — Gettysburg Address
Today is the 149th anniversary of Lincoln’s delivery of this speech that he presented at the dedication of the Soldier’s National Cemetery in Gettysburg. It was commemorated with remarks by Steven Spielberg, near the site where Lincoln gave his address. The video inside Gregory Peck delivering the address.
