CBS’s The Late Show host Stephen Colbert and Comedy Central’s The Daily Show temp host Jordan Klepper condemned Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on their Tuesday shows for joking about possibly putting a new state prison next to Disney World and it was unclear if these professional joke tellers knew DeSantis was joking.

Monday’s CBS Mornings included yet another act of corporate whoring on behalf of parent company Paramount to slobber nauseating praise over the latest guest-hosted week of Daily Show episodes, which will feature longtime correspondent and failed host of The Opposition, Jordan Klepper. Of the 12 guest-hosts, CBS has engaged in seven of these puke-tastic forays.

Comedy Central’s The Daily Show claims to be a comedy show, but temp host Kal Penn and husband of Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, Chasten Buttigieg, turned it into the joke police on Thursday while condemning a recent joke told by former Vice President Mike Pence at Pete’s expense.
