'You Know It, I Know It': Jon Stewart Torches Elon Musk Over 'Bulls**t' New Excuse
HuffPost
The "Daily Show" host accepted Musk's interview offer -- but suspects the tech billionaire is already trying to back out.
“Daily Show” host Jon Stewart on Monday called “bullshit” on tech billionaire Elon Musk, who proposed an interview on the show, then seemed to back away from it.
Stewart last week slammed Musk’s DOGE government cost-cutting effort ― and opened up a bloody wound on a his finger in the process ― for targeting everyday workers and relatively low-cost programs instead of taking on the big industries reaping billions in taxpayer subsidies.
Musk afterward said on X that he would come on the show for an interview if they promised to run it unedited.
“The Daily Show” quickly accepted, and Stewart on Monday said the interview could be as long as Musk wants and they’d still air the whole thing.
“I’ll be honest, I don’t think this network makes any other programming, so we can do whatever the fuck we want as long as we wrap before the new season of South Park, which comes out like May or June of 2026.” Stewart said.
