so if you go fishing for a fluke, chances are you just might catch one. trivia announcer: oh boy. welcome to the stonewall lions trivia championships. first prize is $2,500. let's just do our thing, collect our hardware, and get the hell home. riboflavin. riboflavin? michigan. the president of the united states is potus. john steinbeck wrote "the grapes of wrath." ♪ ♪ >> announcer: from the most trusted journalists at comedy central... it's america's only source for news. this is "the daily show" with your host, jon stewart! [cheers and applause]
11:01 pm
♪ ♪ >> jon: hey! hey! i didn't know -- [cheers and applause] look at that. i didn't know where it was coming from! welcome to "the daily show!" please! my name is jon stewart. we got a lot going on in the world today, very consequential. the things you are seeing on the news and all that. huge consequences. but i would be remiss if i did not comment on the big news in broadcasting: pat sajak, patrick sajak stepped down from "wheel of fortune" after 41 years. it was incredibly emotional, and i just want to say to pat sajak: have you thought about just
11:02 pm
doing mondays? because... [cheers and applause] you can phone and that [bleep] in. but of course, he is gone. just in time for pride month! ironically. [cheers and applause] i won't mention why. pride month is, of course, that time of year when corporations get together and financially exploit the decades-long struggle of gay people for acceptance and equality. hey! remember when you were fired from that bank job after you were outed? well, burger king does! with a burger that has two bottom buns! [audience reacts] yeah. that is not a funny make 'em up. scarred by conversion therapy? skittles is releasing a colorless version of skittles! apparently not wanting to confuse gay people with competing rainbows.
11:03 pm
yeah. and then there's this ad, showing a family overcoming a father's deep conservative values. and as you watch it, try to guess exactly what it is they are selling. >> mom, this is amy. >> hi, amy. >> hey, dad. >> you're the cutest little baby. >> is that your dad? >> what is he doing? >> did i do it right? ♪ ♪ i love you. do you like it? >> i love it. [laughter and applause]
11:04 pm
>> jon: what the [bleep]? yeah, the next time you waste an enormous amount of paint to apologize to your daughter for making her and her girlfriend walk on [bleep] eggshells the whole [bleep] weekend, not even saying anything, just standing there with your little glowering beard face, in the shadows... you painted face and give her an oreo? and then, of course, there's target. pride month means so much to them that they set up one small area in their 20,000 square feet of store space to sell you a pride t-shirt they had made in indonesia for 29 cents landed. because they believe so much in the cause. >> well, target will be dialing back its pride month merchandise this june. >> jon: what? how will i learn to "live, laugh, lesbian?"
11:05 pm
that's right, target is... apparently less proud of pride this year. but why? >> retail giant target is grappling with backlash from conservatives over its most recent collection celebrating the lgbtq community. >> do not shop at target or else you're gay and you're a pervert. [laughter] >> jon: even if i'm just getting paper towels? is that -- but that's the burden corporations must bear. they care almost too much about the human condition, often finding themselves in the crosshairs of ideologues and fundamentalists. but they stand by their values. sometimes for a couple of months! for instance, post-january 6th, hundreds of corporations announced the end of donations to senators or congressmen who voted to overturn the election. and that moral stand in defense
11:06 pm
of democracy itself lasted... almost a month! yeah, they ran the numbers, and apparently you can sell more cell phones in a dictatorship. but that month appears nearly gandhi-esque when compared to bud light, whose foray into inclusion was last april's incredibly not-in-the-public's-face small promotional social media video with a transgender influencer named dylan mulvaney. prompting a conservative bud light murder purge! [gunfire] dear god, man! those beers had families! bud light sales plummeted, stocks tanked, and it only took two weeks for budweiser to issue an apology and run a new ad campaign, designed to win back the kind of people who shoot at their products.
11:07 pm
>> let me tell you a story about a beer rooted in the heart of america. >> jon: a talking horse? you're apologizing about a transgender influencer, using a talking horse? tell us your story, national velvet! >> found in a community where a handshake is a sure contract. this is a story bigger than beer. this is the story of the american spirit. ♪ ♪ >> jon: first of all, i think that horse is scared shitless. the apology gift to people upset about budweiser... is a budweiser. curious. but don't be sad. for this is only following in a long line of hollow corporate pandering meant to convince you that not only are corporations
11:08 pm
people, they're good people! decent people! who care about the systemic ills of this great nation. we saw this very clearly in the wake of george floyd's murder. corporations saw people's demand for a reckoning with america's racist past, and they said, "sure, us too!" >> we're on a 400 year long journey and scars don't fade, but neither does hope. >> and in the fight against systematic racism and inequality, doritos is committing to amplifying black voices. >> general mills serves the world by making food people love and inclusion is one of our secret ingredients. >> at kraft heinz, our purpose is to make life delicious and we believe we can't achieve that without one essential ingredient: diversity.
11:09 pm
[laughter] [cheers and applause] >> jon: are you sure you don't mean sodium triphosphate? meanwhile, while corporations forcefully pronounced their deeply held value of promoting diversity on network television, their commitment only lasted until the protests died down. >> time for the morning buzz. major tech giants, including google and meta, quietly slashing their diversity, equity, and inclusion jobs this year and laying off workers in those departments. d.e.i.-related job postings in 2023 declined 44%. >> jon: hmm, using much less of the ingredient than they thought they needed!
11:10 pm
turns out the recipe kraft wanted just called for a dash of inclusion, just a soupcon of diversity! so they're very clearly conflicted between the high moral values they think we want and the amoral values that serve their shareholders. so if i may address corporate america quickly in this moment: stop. we don't need any of this. we don't need to know that your products are used by only the most diverse families walking down sidewalks, or camping, or diverse families doing a ride or a loan or doing laundry or a diverse family -- i don't know what they are. this guy, he's got a skin condition. no [bleep] way is he dating her! no way!
11:11 pm
no way! there is no way! [applause] oh, sure, we are supposed to believe how many beautiful, multiracial young ladies are dating eczema opie. oh, okay! okay! very believable! i apologize sincerely to that gentlemen. and by the way, for those on the right who wish corporations would just ditch the woke performances and go back to good old-fashioned patriotic values: that's all bullshit, too! for god's sakes, spaghettios told us not to forget pearl harbor. by the way, why is the speghettio so happy about pearl harbor? is he remembering or celebrating it? i wouldn't be surprised
11:12 pm
if spaghettios supported pearl harbor. technically, a can of spaghettios is a sneak attack on your digestive system. [laughter and applause] spaghettios: the arby's of pasta. [applause] why are we allowing ourselves to get worked up over whether giant, multi-national corporations are pro-gay or have traditional american values? because corporations have but one value: shareholder value. that's all they have! that budweiser horse that wants to restore our american spirit? it's actually owned by a belgian-brazilian beverage conglomerate! that "all-american" clydesdale's name is probably jean-luc bolsonaro. even the corporations you think are sincere, like dove and their multi-year commitment to
11:13 pm
body positivity, are owned by unilever, also the owner of axe body spray and their decades-long commitment to [bleep] anything that moves! there is nothing corporations do that is not in service of their bottom line. even when you go to the checkout at the grocery store and the little card reader thing says, "you want to round up to help feed some children?" well, the first thing i think is, "you're the one with all the food, [bleep], why don't you round some of that up?" and then they got the balls to put out a press release talking about how much money they donated to stop world hunger. that's my money! you tell those kids that's my money! let's stop pretending that a corporation can even be woke or unwoke, or patriotic or unpatriotic.
11:14 pm
let's just let corporations live their truth as the profit-seeking patrick bateman psychopaths they are. at the very least, we might finally -- [cheers and applause] we might finally get some honesty from them as well. take a look. ♪ ♪ >> hi. we are corporate america. >> not any specific one. all of them. they go over the years, we pledge our commitment to some important causes, like gay rights, democracy, and something to do with black people. >> this month, we are proud to celebrate our biggest commitment of all. no longer pretending that we give a ship shared about any of that. one of our new honesty, we pledge no more mission statements or awareness campaigns, or promises to increase diversity in management. >> you think a year ago, we'd be putting up two straight white people this close together? >> got no. we would hire two diverse actors to pretend they worked here. what a time. >> from now on, we will go on to do what we are designed to do, making products as cheaply as we
11:15 pm
can and tel selling them to yout the highest price possible. >> yeah, but we'll still be carbon neutral because it's important to get in that zero. [laughter] >> i mean, we never did that in the first place. >> i don't even know what it means. >> here at corporate america, love is love. >> what are you doing? ♪ ♪ >> jon: when we come back, monica mcnutt will be joining us. so don't go away.

[cheers and applause] ♪ ♪
11:20 pm
monica, how are you? [cheers and applause] ♪ ♪ monica! welcome, welcome. >> thank you, jon. >> jon: it is so nice to see you. everyone is aware there was a huge, viral moment in sports reporting and you, monica, were at the center of it, concerning an appearance on stephen a. smith's show, and a young basketball player on the fever. >> mm-hmm. >> jon: who is apparently generating quite a bit of controversy. >> yes. >> jon: tell us a little bit about that viral moment. >> the conversation, jon, it started about this foul over the weekend, that chennedy carter for the chicago sky fouled caitlin clark on the indiana fever. i'm not going to lie to you, if i take you through my day that morning, i got the call, got the text,
11:21 pm
are we really leading sports with this? are we really leading sports with a foul? >> jon: a person got knocked over in a basketball game. >> let's just do it. we have a conversation with colleagues and friends, stephen a. smith, shannon sharpe. my larger point in the conversation was the tenor and the prevailing narrative that has been created around this season's wnba play is that it is the league versus caitlin clark. and that is just absolutely false. it is unfair to the women that have been there, building this league to this moment, so that caitlin clark's popularity can take it to the next level. so while caitlin is fantastic and i think she's going to have an incredible career in the wnba, there are women that were worthy of coverage prior to her arriving and i will not be silenced when it comes to that. [cheers and applause] >> jon: beautifully said. now -- and i'm going to tell you this -- i have not particularly followed the wnba on a day-to-day. i follow women's basketball sometimes more in college, i think. in the old days, dawn staley and those players, i did follow that. >> yep. >> jon: but i have incredibly strong opinions about it anyway. >> okay. [laughs]
11:22 pm
fair enough. fair enough. >> jon: there is another layer of conversation going on beneath this. >> correct. >> jon: that has been introduced onto the stage and that is, look, we all know everything that underlines society in many ways goes along race, class, and gender. >> mm-hmm. >> jon: and race, class, and gender has entered the conversation. >> in a very large way. what is interesting and i'm hoping more folks are like, yo, this basketball is great, i want to learn more about these women, race, culture, gender are things that the women of the wnba have never shied away from. a part of the bubble in 2020, they impacted the election in georgia in terms of standing on their values. but if we have a conversation about the societal totem pole, if you will, black women, a large representation of queer women, these are all things that sit at intersectional identities, and you just opened up your show talking about rallying these things. >> jon: that's exactly right. >> so there are all these isms out of me the wnba beautiful
11:23 pm
for 28 years, including this season, and even the wnba has to have its arc in terms of growth of learning into these women both on and off the court. but it is, at the base of it, if you take all of that out, these are women who are competing and you just got here? what are we doing? [applause] >> jon: what is amazing about it is, what i have heard from some of the commentary are people who just got there saying, this is so unfair to the sweet white girl. now first of all, caitlin clark looks like a competitor. >> 100%. >> jon: she looks like somebody who is really a competitor. but the odd part is, i'm always interested in this idea that sports exists outside of the fault lines of regular society and isn't a reflection of those things and a continuation, in some respects, of those battles. >> mm-hmm. that existence is for probably, like, 20% of men's sports and then you got to deal with race and then there's other things that you got to deal with.
11:24 pm
like we said, women's sports sits right in the midst of all of that. we could be not talking about basketball and we have plenty women's issues that have our country on fire. and so it's a beautiful time and i don't think anybody who is a part of this league or has covered this league, sure, we'll admit, keeping this thing that we love to protect it from all of the noise, right? >> jon: that's interesting. >> but in the same breath, the eyeballs and the visibility and the growth is better for all involved. >> jon: are there people within the wnba community who feel like, i don't want this to belong to everybody? i wanted to belong to this band of sisters that have worked so hard to make it something? oh, monica mcnutt! one of the band! >> i have had that moment a few times, because as much as the conversation has been dictated by the audience, right, we still haven't really set up and talked about the actual basketball of it, jon! i don't know how many people just joined the wnba understand that las vegas aces are chasing down a threepeat,
11:25 pm
which hasn't been done since the formative years of the league, houston comets. i don't know how many people know that the connecticut sun just lost their first game the other day, they were 9-0 to start the season. what names can i help introduce you to? if you pick up a "rolling stone," a'ja wilson and breanna stewart are part of the next issue, i believe. so we have opened the door but we are still looking in instead of walking in, if i may. >> jon: absolutely. absolutely. >> so i think it is a really unique time -- and even with this olympic team stuff. caitlin clark, who you mentioned is a the tremendous competitor, said herself, it's the toughest team to make. not surprised. >> jon: and she's a rookie. she's just coming out of iowa. >> she can say that and she can also feel as if something in her has been awoken in terms of making that a goal of her own. i would hope -- and i know this is not a thing in sports -- we got to remember that two things can be true. she's been great for the league but there were 144 women prior to her in this class that have gotten this thing up to year 28. >> jon: final question, i am a
11:26 pm
new york knicks fan -- >> yes, we know. >> jon: and i want desperately to know if what i'm seeing, if the love i am feeling, i have opened my heart again. monica, it's been so long -- >> let's hold hands. >> jon: thank you so much. i have opened up my heart again to a basketball team. i never thought it would happen again. >> i am proud of you. i am so proud of you. that was a big move. >> jon: monica, i have to tell you something, i am afraid to be hurt. >> that's okay. >> jon: will the knicks hurt me? >> life is full of -- >> jon: that was hesitation, monica! that was a hesitation! [laughter and applause] i want them to be great! >> i think they are on the right track what you got to play the games. >> jon: that is why we go to them. and i don't want to be a sad meme anymore, which is always what happens when i'm at the games. monica, what a delight to meet you and i am such a fan of yours and i wish you all the best and continued success. monica mcnutt, ladies and gentlemen. >> thank you, jon. >> jon: we're going to take a quick break, but we'll be right back after this.

at the time of crucifixion. jesus did not suffer for our sins. he was, in fact, very high. - all the years of being told something. it's just so unfair. - priests and bishops have been working overtime to remove jesus from the record books and from the last supper. - [speaking latin] - i know people that paid ten bucks for those bracelets. i bet they all feel pretty stupid now. - [sighs] [school bell rings] - yeah, and so--and so then i asked preacher, well, what about the new testament? - uh-huh.
