Last Week Tonight with John Oliver takes on food labeling and the lies they tell consumers



Former Daily Show correspondent John Oliver launched his new show "Last Week Tonight with John Oliver" on HBO last night. In this segment, he covers a recent Supreme Court case involving one of the plaintiffs citing the 1st amendment as protection for their false advertising, and other insane claims made for products. Other segments featured the United States media outlets largely ignoring one of the largest elections the world has seen thus far (in India); and an interview with former NSA director Keith Alexander. The entire program is viewable on Youtube.

Video here.

Hrm. I'm getting the NSA one from the official channel... Don't know what's going on, but I bet Rupert's involved.

EDIT: Ah, extras only. I wish TDS would do this as even if I watched the episode legally here I can't see the extended interviews.
