So, when Oliver says “Enron-style Fox Business Network,” it’s not allowed to ask what the hell that means?

Got it.

I’m going with liar as well.

And Jay Tea, your desperate attempts to change the subject are usually pathetic, but this one sets a new low. Just…wow.

…and the Enron comparison would be based on just what, exactly?

Or is this an example of Oliver’s laziness — “I hate Fox and Enron was evil, so I’ll lump them together and hope no one looks too carefully at it.”

Also, as I recall, Enron’s abuses nearly all occurred prior to January 20, 2001, and all the convictions occurred after that date. Would it be fair to describe it as “Bush cleaning up another scandal Bill Clinton allowed to be swept under the rug?”

Just askin’…

Roundhead: “And, of course, the interviewer didn’t ask him ‘Uh, you’re kidding, right? I mean…you’ve got to be pulling my leg, correct?’”

Of course not. Questing the veracity of the person you are interviewing is considering impolite.
