Dayton and June Griffin on the Daily Show
Tonight's Daily Show had a distinctly Southeast Tennessee flair, as reporter Ed Helms traveled to Dayton as part of the "Evolution, Schmevolution" series on the show this week.
Of course, he talked to June Griffin who was as entertaining as always, especially the part where he baited her into saying she wanted to whip "the Sodomites". But then, would you expect any less of our local hate-mongering lunatic?
His whole theme was most enjoyable, comparing Dayton to Colonial Williamsburg. I especially liked the part where he made fun for Bryan University by saying that Dayton went so far as to hire actors to play students. Anyway - catch it in a rerun if you can. The "moment of Zen" for the episode is J.C. Fugate's calling for a resolution to ban gay people from Rhea County.
As he put it, "Thank goodness this is all just a an act. Because if it was real, that would be fucking insane."
