Jon Stewart slams Elon Musk's 'bull----' reason for not doing interview

The liberal comedian told his audience not to blame corporations for receiving billions in government subsidies, which he called "profit-seeking psychopaths," but to blame the government for subsidizing corporate greed.

Last week, Musk responded to an X post suggesting he go on Stewart's show, saying, "I will do it if the show airs unedited."

Musk continued on X, claiming, "Jon is too set in his ways. He used to be more bipartisan," and also that, "Jon Stewart is much more a propagandist than it would seem."

Stewart responded by questioning Musk's own partisanship, accusing him of being hypocritical.

The late-night host continued, saying, "Look, Elon, I do have some criticisms about DOGE, I support in general the idea of efficiency and delivering better services to the American public in cheaper and more efficient ways. And if you want to come on and talk about it on the show, great. If you don't want to, sure. But can we just drop the pretense that you won't do it because I don't measure up to the standards of neutral discord that you demand and display at all times? Because, quite frankly, that's bull----."

It is still unclear whether Musk will be making an appearance on "The Daily Show" anytime soon.

Elon Musk did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Fox News Digital.
