Oddly the newspost doesn't even touch on todays comic but is almost entirely about Fridays.
damn
high
This is true.

Ya, seems like Friday's comic got a lot of play.
Tycho and I seem to be in pretty much the same situation, down to the religious parents disapproving of a gay sister.
My father-in-law has been watching FOX all weekend and my wife and I just finished a conversation about how it is the bane of my existence literally 2 minutes before I checked out the comic
"But on CNN you only get the left side of the issues"
... and you get both sides on FOX?
It really puts Friday's comic into a clearer perspective, at least for me.

Just for kicks I googled "law of gravity, obama, fox".
The results were quite disturbing.
it is pretty terrible when you come home from college, having escaped the land of T.V., and are faced with two terrible news stations simultaneously
and my dad gets his daily reprieve from the lamestream media from talk radio instead of fox
Let me tell you about video games. Let me tell you about Homestuck
It is a good thing.
Though when he starts in on how Obama is terrible at his job, I ask him whether or not a party that withholds medical care to 9/11 first responders is any better.

because while his opinions are obviously flawed or bigoted, he is actually a pretty good debater and manages to get the issue twisted all up in knots to the point where I don't even know what the fuck we're talking about anymore
and when I actually do get him in a corner he just assures me that even though he doesn't have a response to what I'm saying there are really smart people who agree with him that could tear my argument to shreds
such as Rush Limbaugh

Haha.
You consider FoxNews and MSNBC news stations.
Haha.

This comic really isn't political at all. I mean, it mentions a politician, but it isn't making a political statement or anything.
So many bad words to describe black people.
The MAN is keeping them down.

Must remember to investigate further. Hurm.
I knew places like N****rmania.net existed, but I didn't think it was that bad.
Fuckin' embarrassment to this country, those racists.

Not to totally derail this; but what makes you think news on the internet is any more reliable than on the television? Aren't you making the same judgement no matter where you obtain news from - ie just how reliable is this source, what are its credentials?
Who gives a shit.
Funny comic.
Whoa whoa whoa, guy.
Gravity is just a theory.
Pretty much this.
Well, two

Thing is, I'm pretty much have zero faith in anyone who runs for public office anyway, so I go into every election expecting to be let down.
So, y'know, whatever.

I suppose Jon Stewart/Stephen Colbert is okay.
iphones advertisements aside
save for what they show on the Daily Show/Colbert Report of course.
Although sometimes Food Network is turned on and that douche Guy Ferrari is on. My eyes start bleeding and stuff.
It is not necessarily more reliable if I only went to one source. However, I try to get news from a couple of different sources so that i see multiple perspectives as opposed to only seeing it from one perspective as I would from any TV news station. However, I do see your point in the medium not mattering unless you seek out multiple sources.
This is a political comic, but that's ok.
True, but in order to understand the jokes, I need to know what the jokes are about, so they neccessarily have to explain the news to you before they can start making fart jokes and showing funny videos of old ladies tripping on ice
...or something
The Daily show provides a useful service, they put a spin on it to soften the blow that all this depressing shit has on a young man.
What kind of option is left?
...
The comic was good.
The news post, exquisite.
