Last night, Jon Stewart looked at the rhetoric around Rush Limbaugh's slut shaming and how Limbaugh and other conservative commentators feel wounded because liberal comedians or commentators like Bill Maher and Ed Schultz have called Republican women horrible things with consequence.

Of course, Stewart points out that liberals who do use slurs or speak in a hateful manner do get burned, like Tracy Morgan and Michael Richards—yet Fox News loves to promote Ted Nugent, who once said of Obama, "to suck on my machine gun." Stewart ended the segment with the rousing, "Fox News: shut the fuck up about how victimized you and you alone are. Nobody cares."
