Did anybody here see this? I'd recommend everyone go watch it. I don't think I'm allowed to link it but its definitely worth a watch.

I like Oliver and he's clearly a liberal but I was surprised it was not a softball interview.

I like Oliver a lot - but I think he really blew the interview. It's like he couldn't decide if he wanted to go for jokes or be serious.

 

I was really disappointed. He went all the way to Moscow for that?

 

Thank goodness I've seen the documentary (recently shown on HBO) on Snowden.

I thought it was fine. He drilled him a couple times but he is a comedian.

I wish he wouldn't have kept cutting him off, though I know it's an entertainment show but still.

I'm glad you can take a show without sponsors and immediately make it an us vs them. I would stick to watching football.

He just stated the obvious Oliver leans left so what. It doesn't discount or credit his views it's just perspective on his segments.
