The Daily Show: Birds of a Feather
I recently came across this video of my all-time favorite Daily Show segment ever, a Samantha Bee exposé about gay penguins at the Central Park Zoo in New York City. In it, she interviews the infamous Paul Cameron, a controversial researcher and chairman of the anti-gay Family Research Institute. Samantha Bee has so many hysterical lines in this one, and she delivers each one flawlessly.
Gay penguins were also the subject of a number of other reports from more legitimate news sources, including a New York Times article and a CNN video (I had trouble viewing it in any format other than WMV). Somehow, The Daily Show video seemed more insightful. I still bristle at the zoo keeper's heterosexist comment in the CNN video about one of the two female penguins being "the guy" in the relationship.
