If anyone can do this it’s Jon Stewart. I know he’s mentioned on several occasions that he doesn’t have any political ambitions whatsoever, and he’s been true to his word. But sometimes circumstances allow great men to take great leaps, and on rare occasions, do great things.
The fact that The Hill is already running a piece trying to play him off as a comedy star from an era that has all but vanished due to the corporate landscape, is all I need to know to believe what he has to say. They’re already trying to downplay and dismiss the results before they’ve occurred.
What are the terms of the interview? Will it be in person in front of an audience, via webcast, in front of the burning reichstag, etc…
Musk just wants it to air unedited. Which means no matter what they do, he would be able to claim it was edited if things don’t go his way and he ends up looking like (an even bigger) fool.
Just shows how stupid Elon is. Stewart is an accomplished interviewer, with the backup of being a comedian. Watch Stewart keep his composure after smashing his coffee cup the other night. He assessed the cut, laughed it off, and finished the monologue instantly. Elmo doesn’t have the composure to handle a problem like that.
Was real, they taped him up during the commercial to finish the interview. Probably just a minor cut, but at his age he’s probably on blood pressure, or heart meds, so small cuts bleed like crazy.
Do multiple cameras, but display them all continuously, and then do all the tricks people use to try to make it obvious no editing was done and put them in the foreground and background of all the angles.
Nah…He’d still play the it was edited bullshit. The only thing that is nearly impossible to defend is “it was edited while being played live”. There, his embarrassments are his own, and they’re very very hard to downplay to any other causes.

Maybe Jon can tucker carlson elon.
I rewatch that crossfire clip regularly. It’s my happy place.
Zelenskyy was also a comedian first.
People forget that popular comedians are usually incredibly intelligent. Conan graduated MCL from Harvard.
Yeah, frankly, its hard to be a great comedian, while also an idiot.
Which is why conservative “comedy” is just a bunch of slurs. They can’t come up with actual jokes.
To be fair, Conan is not typical, and his brain needs to be studied by scientists after he dies lol
Damn I didn’t know Harvard issued medial cruciate ligaments

Was that a trick cup and fake blood, or the real deal?

So do a single camera and air it live.

Attach a scope to that “camera.”
