John Oliver
From Wikiality, the Truthiness Encyclopedia
John Cornelius Oliver is Daily Show Correspondent, or since he is British, Courrespondouent. He is trying to follow in the footsteps of Stephen Colbert, but is unfortunately going completely the wrong way. He is the only "Daily Show" correspondent to spell his first name right, unlike a certain Jewish person on The Daily Show. Oliver bears a striking resemblance to noted mega-trillionaire media mogul John Jay Viacom Jr. III.
Some Daily Show fans/stoned slackers are saying that John Oliver is the "British Stephen Colbert," but he is turning into the "British and possibly sexist Mo Rocca" instead. He should probably go back to England and make more jokes about fish and biscuits.
It is possible that his attack on Joe Scarborough at the Reagan Presidential Library was an outburst due to his man crush on the handsome pundit.
John Oliver is now married to Jason Jones. Yikes.
