This has gotten a lot of coverage on cable news today...(which I was glad to see)
I'm not a big Oliver fan, but I've got to give him some props here...
While much of the interview is the sort of clowning buffoonery one might expect, for about 3 minutes he did a far better job in confronting TTS then Brian Williams did in three hours...
He did his homework, he came prepared, and he didn't let him slither off the hook...
He really did an excellent job of knocking the smarmy little weasel off his self-righteous narcissistic pedestal; I'm sure the scumbag never expected that from Oliver...
The real meat of the interview starts at about 3.40 on this clip....
John Oliver Interview with Edward Snowden...

Wow, it's as if you watched an entirely different interview.
For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.
