Samantha Bee Gets Debate Reactions From Stonewall Inn
The queen of late night sent reporters to a viewing party at the historic LGBT site to contrast them with conservative viewers in a sports bar.
On Wednesday, Full Frontal With Samantha Bee wrapped up its bitingly hilarious coverage of Monday night's presidential debate by showing its reporters' coverage of viewing parties at two very different bars in New York City. One reporter mingled with liberals at the historic Stonewall Inn, where a riot against police harassment in 1969 gave momentum to the modern LGBT rights movement, and another talked with conservatives at Tonic, a sports bar in Times Square. The difference in reactions is incredible to watch, with confirmation bias on full display. After the debate, the show had a progressive and a conservative face off about whether Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton had won the debate, in a segment both funny and disturbing. Check it out below.
