Jon Stewart Likens Media Coverage of Donald Trump to ‘Incessant Masturbation’ (Video)

“Eventually you feel a deep sense of shame,” he explains. “Not enough to stop you from doing it entirely, but enough to slow you down a bit”

The Daily Show

Jon Stewart lambasted the media on Wednesday’s “Daily Show” for continued overcoverage of Donald Trump, though the Comedy Central host admitted to somewhat getting off on the circus a bit himself.

Trump’s “campaign has captured America’s inability to turn away from man-made disasters,” Stewart opined. He added that the news coverage was “much like incessant masturbation — eventually you feel a deep sense of shame.”

“Not enough to stop you from doing it entirely, but enough to slow you down a bit,” the comedian added.

This “Trump-gazing” has caused us to miss actual important breaking events, such as the recent nuclear deal with Iran, he said.
