I am hoping someone can help me find a Daily Show clip from sometime last summer, around the time of Snowden's leaks. Or perhaps someone remembers what I am talking about:
I believe it was the first segment of the show. Jon spent ~10 minutes discussing the Snowden revelations, and at the end, started talking about an executive directive/memo. The memo outlined certain United States foreign policy objectives, and stated that the president was bound (by the memo/directive) to fufill the listed objectives. The implicaiton being that these decisions have been made in advance. The segment ends with Jon saying "What the f is this now?" in reference to the memo, then the camera pans out to go to commercial.
If anyone knows the name of that directive, or the episode to which i am referring, PLEASE let me know!! Either one is fine. I have been googling for the name of the document, but have come up empty. I also rewatched all of late spring - fall 2013 episodes (minus Oliver's hosting - quite certain it was Stewart) but couldn't find the episode... so thats why i turned to this forum for help. Hopefully you are as obsessive watchers like me.
