Fox News won't stop referring to Jay Z as a crack dealer. The hip hop superstar and millionaire entrepreneur businessman might have been dealer a long time ago, but two decades of dominating the entertainment industry isn't enough to stop Fox News from still characterizing him as a "crack dealer", and The Daily Show's Jon Stewart and Jessica Williams delivered a stunning rebuke on last night's episode.

And following the St. Louis police asking the NFL the apology for the gesture (in which the Rams' coach basically told them to screw off), there's been much discussion about "black-on-black" crime, something The Daily Show with Jon Stewart easily picked up on. To further the discussion, the Comedy Central hit brought in their Senior Black Correspondent, Larry Wilmore, who will replace Stephen Colbert with The Nightly Show when The Colbert Report ends.
