The Daily Show gets thrown off of and under the bus

'Daily Show' crew can't pierce HRC bubble

Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign refused a Comedy Central crew's request to ride on the campaign's traveling press bus.

The crew, from the network's hit faux news program "The Daily Show," showed up at a Sunday night rally at a middle school gym in Eleanor, W.V., apparently intending to film a segment about the media coverage of the campaign.

A Comedy Central crew also recently flew on Barack Obama's campaign plane for the segment.

The crew at Clinton's Sunday night rally, which included Daily Show correspondent Jason Jones, shot footage of Jim Axelrod, CBS News' White House correspondent.

A member of the crew told Politico that the Clinton campaign at first offered Jones et al a ride on its traveling press bus from the Eleanor rally to the Charleston hotel where the press and campaign staff is staying. But the campaign later reneged, according to the crew member.

I guess Saturday Night Live was the last straw.
No more fun and games at Camp Clinton.

I guess Hillary finally comprehended that people weren't laughing with her...
