From Comedy Centrals world news headquarters in new york, this is the daily show with jon stewart. cheers and applause captioning sponsored by Comedy Central jon hey, welcome to the daily show my name is jon stewart. My guest tonight oh we got a good one. Oscar nominee Patricia Arquette from boyhood but first you know,. Brian williams will not be in the anchor chair this evening, after a selfimposed suspension from nbc nightly news following his admission that he mislead the public about his experiences covering the iraq war back in 2003. Jon bri why . laughter why bri . Why bri lie . Sigh. laughter were you bri high . Cuz if they keep finding [bleep] its bri bye. A quick recap in case you are under 70 and dont religiously turn on the network news every night at k6 30,. In 2003 Brian Williams gave his original report from iraq. We asked the u. S. Army to take us on an air mission with them. The chinook ahead of us was almost blown out of the sky. That hole was made by a rocket propelled grenade orr pg. Jon oh. But in 2013 on letterman it became. Two of our four helicopters were hit. By ground fire including the one i was in. No kidding. Rp g a k47s. Jon no kidding. So in 2015 as he returned the story to a news format on his show he stuck with the more, we say interesting workshop version. The story actually started with a terrible moment a dozen years back during the invasion of iraq when the helicopter we were traveling in was forced down after being hit by an rpg. Jon see, i see the problem. You have to infotainment confusion syndrome t occurs when the celebrity quartet get their wires crossed with the medulla anchor dala. You see when it happens. See in 2003 he is looking straight in the camera. The med you willa anchor dalla regulating a news story but in 2013 his head is turned, a 45 degree activating the celeb known as the brains applause center. Once that engages, there is no going back. Youre in full blown anecdote mode. The truth of what a reporter thing is all in the direction their face is turned. News story war story. Trust me on this. Total bull [bleep]. Today marks the 70th anniversary, of the end of world war ii. I know because i killed hitler. laughter theres a classic he said he said it again on letterman but without the footage and a lot more. But like with most cases of masturbation masturbation typically being caught is punishment enough. laughter selflove can be a bad habit. Probably shouldnt do it at your work desk. But its more sin than crime no would you agree . Im sure his colleague was agree. We will take you through the evidence stepbystep. The pilot of Brian Williams helicopter will join us. We will be hearing from two pilots. Tell us what we are seeing. Brian williams did an interview with stars stripes. I talked to a soldier last night. Our media experts within our media panel is here opinions what does this mean for the industry. Did ely. How bad is the damage to his credibility . Jon the media is on it now this may seem like overkill but for me, no its not overkill because im happy. Finally someone is being held to account for misleading america about the iraq war. laughter finally. Now it might not necessarily cheers and applause it might not necessarily be the first person you would want held accountable on that list. But never again will Brian Williams mislead this great nation about being shot at in a war we probably wouldnt have ended up in if the media it had applied this level of scrutiny to the actual [bleep] war. In fact, why is the media so up in arms. This is a huge credibility crisis. Credibility and trust are what we go off wa, we stand for. If they care about credibility he should no longer be managing editor and anchor. Im stunned that are you not asking for him to be fired megan. Really . Someone as absolutely. Someone as credible as you who while very attractive and articulate at the core, are you credible. You are like Walter Cronkite kind of credible. Jon but like way hotter than cronkite like way hotter. Like youre like youre like supercredible. Oh my god did i say that out loud. Dow want to go out to dinner. Are you super credible. Oh my god im super embarrassed. The media is right to go after Williams Lake this. Imagine if you let lies slip into news stories like a huge pile of them was disseminated in say the New York Times and meet the press and sometimes in the New York Times just so that the administration could then go on meet the press and say this. Theres a story in the New York Times this morning that, in fact he had been seeking to acquire the kinds of tubs that are necessary to build a centrifuge and the centrifuge is required to take low grade uranium and enhance it, which is what you have to have in order to build a bomb. Jon the crazy thing is the Bush Administration are the ones who planted the [bleep] story in the New York Times in the first place. The runup to the iraq war was kind of beautiful in the evil efficiency of media manipulation. Like the Bush Administration hired Temple Grandin to design a machine that kills the truth. So i love that now the media pretends that they must the crown jewel of their credibility when we already have seen its al capone vault. Not that they werent hard on themselves post bloep bloep. How did you do on the ideas of weapons of mass destruction. I think we did pretty good. I think we were strong. I think the questions were asked. There was the fog of war. I guess we were caught up in the post 9 11 sense of patriotism. There is the fog of covering the war. Could we have done a better job, sure. Remember, we are a first draft of history journalism. Jon but it wasnt even your draft. You were just copying off of cheneys paper. You were plagerizeing history. But maybe this incident will cause reflection on your part. Will you go back now and look at other instances of media mouthpieces that lead our country to the most catastrophic Foreign Policy decision in decades. Nbc confirming it has indeed launched an internal investigation into stories that williams told. New reports tonight cast doubt on williams post Hurricane Katrina reporting. Williams reported seeing a body float buy in the French Quarter but the French Quarter was not as severely flooded at the time. Now there is a question about was he really mugged as he claimed he was when he was selling Christmas Trees in red bank new jersey. He said even about rescuing puppies from a fire, what started as one puppy from a fire apparently morphed into two puppies from a fire. Jon dammit Brian Williams, one puppy or two. Dont you [bleep] lie to me i want the truth. cheers and applause yeah were on vacation next month, my family churns through all sorts of data. Well, now we have mobile share lue plans with rollover data so the data you dont use this month rolls over to the next. Sounds great. But whats your angle . Um, i dont think i have any angles.

Now that we know that everything we have been told here in this world is a lie especially about the middle east it makes you wonder. What is going on over there . A wave of crises engulfing countries all across the middle east. In the middle east things are just basically falling apart. Big trouble in the country of yemen. A growing terrorism problem in egypt. Very very gruesome and ugly battle over there. Jon here to help us make sense is egypt foremost political satirist host of the banned Television Program basam yousef thanks for joining us. Thank you thank you very much. Jon obviously right now the middle east spiraling out of control. So tell me, what should america do about this . Well how about nothing. applause oh thank you.

Post decade america a whos who of military and they give you what you want oil. Air fuel oil. Security arrangements. Oil. And lets not forget a huge poacher last time. Jon mrs. Robinson, are you trying to reduce me . We know what you are into. Mr. Grey will see you now. And in return the dictators got someone their when the garbage back home doesnt get picked up for a week, without do you think people blame. Jon im going got sanitation department. Exactly. We blame america. So you see everybody gets what they want. Its a win win. Jon its not a win, win not for the people. For them its a lose, lose and then no garbage pick up lose. The people, you dont want them to think their own government. Jon i dont . Yeah what if they elect somebody america doesnt want. If you had the manager at best buy would you want him fired . Jon you mean if i would lose my friends and Family Discount then i oh. Youre saying the next guy might make us say resale. If he even lets new the store. Jon thats okay. If the People Choose the wrong government well help them get it right and send in a few tanks, maybe some boots on the ground some advisors. Are you listening to yourself jon. Let it go. Let it go let it go slam the door and. Jon okay i thought drones were the worst thing we exported to that region. Princess. Seriously though you cant let it go. America is like a dog with a hot spot on its butt. Called the middle east. And you think you have to keep licking it but are you just making it worse. laughter jon are you saying, are you saying that america has to uhhuh yes. Jon oh, no not the cone. You need the cone. America needs the cone swrz no no. We cant wear the cone. Yeah. Yeah. Jon this is wait a minute wait a minute. You are doing it too. You are blaming america. Me . Jon yes, you are. You are pretending were responsible for all the middle east problems. No. Jon admit it, that hot spot on our butt was festering before we even licked it. Gross, ew. Jon see blaming the dog. The metaphor was yours. America didnt create all the corruption that cripples middle eastern politics with. Didnt establish the hierarch oooh or meddive el justice system. You know, what i got a song for i buddy. Im so no thats not it we didnt start the fire it was all [bleep] before we even got there. Let it go. Jon oh stop. I will ask you one more time what should america do . Okay. We want you to [bleep] off and leave us alone. Jon all right fine, fine fine. Yes. Jon done. Yes. But not right away.

Jon i like that. Patricia arquette smeltery. It has a ring to it right. Jon this movie, you know i keep harping on it and i feel like an i had item at this point but it is so well done. But you have children. I do, i have two a 26yearold and 11yearold. Jon and i have a tenyearold and nineyearold. And watching this film made me peel like oh my god it slips away so fast. It does. I know we have such a short lifecycle. And you know working on movies for many years is always about the big things the most dramatic elements. Someone in a his three book someone who is the best at something. Richard was so brave to make this movie where he really believed what is beautiful is life normal life love mistakes. It that were here on earth the real celebration is just human beings. Jon i notice with my kids, i didnt pay much attention to them. laughter i heard that from their therapist. Jon exactly. So you dont in the movie though each moment you realize because it crystallizes the change in a moment. And it happens like that you realize you look at the narrowing of the facial or a slight gesture or for the parent. And it makes you want to note those moments in your own life. Does it change the way you look at it. A couple things that happened that were interesting. One, in playing it there would be a moment like there was a scene with a stepfather character and the boy has down, we talked a lot. The mom is at this point in her career. This point in her development. Why is she okay with this kind of argument. Shes not getting into it shes not completely engaging. And just thinking about that is one of those moments where later when he was a an adult. He will say do you remember when that guy said that about my nails and you didnt say anything. And shell say no that didnt happen. I would have said something, what are you talk approximating about. That didnt happen like that. No i would have said something. Like its not just the things in the movie but also the other things we omit from our own memories as we go along being parents. Jon do you believe in your parenting, you or your kids . I think the truth is somewhere in between. Sometimes they will make arguments. Jon i believe me. Do you . Well i remember my daughter climbing into bed when she was little. I said you have to learn to sleep on your own cuz you get a better night sleep. You have to sleep on your own be comfortable with your own body, get good rest. Wait a minute, you have daddy. Daddy has you. Im the child. I have no one. I was like you have a point there. Jon and later on they will turn that into awe ban dawned me in a dark room. Cuz i always i will say that to my mom i will relate something about the childhood. I have a scar. Right. Jon but its amazing. What is the next do you go theres nothing else like this that you are doing. There is no other like you dont want to tell me about there is a 40 year project were working on. I tried to convince him to make it a 40 year project, i was weeping so much. Jon did you want to keep going. Oh, yeah, i usually love to finish things but at this i couldnt stand the last. I said this is a 20 year movie. Im the mom. Mom says no. Jon keep it going. Or maybe when i die that will be the great mystery like, it could be an 80 year project. Jon that say generous plot point for to you offer. Thank you. Jon to watch him go from that age from the age where they dont understand relationships and time and all that, to when they do. That is my kids are just beginning to get that my daughter said to me recently you know when im 60 you will be 100. And i was like yup. laughter jon the movie is back in theerts and you are doing, what is the show are you doing. Csi which is very scary technology. Jon yeah, i dont trust that either.
