‘The Daily Show’: Jon Stewart Mocks Climate Deniers
"Global warming is a total hoax. And I'll tell you how I know. Because it’s cold, today, where I live. That's jus' science," Stewart satirically said on his program Wednesday night.
The cold weather the East Coast is currently experiencing led Jon Stewart to (satirically) come to the following conclusion on “The Daily Show” on Wednesday night: “Global warming is a total hoax. And I’ll tell you how I know. Because it’s cold, today, where I live. That’s jus’ science.”
Before you knock Stewart’s “logic,” you should know that numerous Republicans and conservative pundits have already made that same claim–except they were serious when they challenged climate change.
