"The Daily Show" host Jon Stewart argued on his podcast Wednesday that the media "squandered" its trust with the public after hyping up stories that eventually fell apart.

“Poor Punch. Although, and no disrespect, but clearly there is probably something wrong with that f–king monkey,” Stewart quipped during Monday’s monologue, prompting shocked laughter from the audience. “Hear me out. I understand, and it’s adorable. And he’s breaking my heart. But that being said, who are we to question the wisdom of the tribe?”

Jon Stewart took aim at Kash Patel on the latest episode of The Daily Show, mocking the FBI director for joining the Team USA men’s hockey team after their big Olympics win.
