When Zanye Met Donald: A LATE-NIGHT STORY

摘要

Unlike a lot of people, I wouldn't say I'm scared by what's happening in the world right now. I would say that I'm mortified. I wake up every day to more insane news and think, "I can't wait to get back on TV." When I shot the pilot for a new late-night show at the end of last year, I knew I wanted to focus on stories in both politics and pop culture, because there really is no separation anymore. Everything political has become pop culture, and most pop culture has a political bent to it-on Instagram, the Women's March looked like Coachella! I scroll down my timeline and it's equal parts celebrity gossip and political posts. Same with most peo- ple I know. You're not dumb for having a pool among your friends to guess the sex of Beyoncé's twins, and you're not a genius for having a position on Betsy DeVos. You're probably just American.
