Lewis Black makes an appearance on the Daily Show to comment on the recent trend of angry outbursts in America, a topic of debate amongst many newscasters. The comedian tackles the recent indiscretions of Joe Wilson, Serena Williams and Kanye West, but unlike some pundits, doesn’t seem to think it’s that big of a deal. Republicans saying inappropriate things is hardly new. Tennis stars, like Joe McEnroe, have been acting out for years, and Kanye West is notorious for outlandish behavior. The only thing that shocks Black, a man prone to fits of anger himself, is that he hasn’t gotten any publicity from his antics. In response to Joe Wilson’s rapid increase in campaign donations he emphatically says, “Two million dollars in six days after one angry outburst? I’m firing my agent!”
