Scathing remark comes hot on the heels of “Wrognado” segment on Stewart’s show

Jon Stewart has no love for CNN these days, not after the way they handled the Boston bombings and the more recent Navy Yard shooting. Above is his latest segment, in which he accuses the network of a “wrongnado” of disinformation.

Piers Morgan, who works with CNN, is obviously not amused.

Though he’s not named once in the Stewart monolog, he believes Jon is pot calling kettle black.

“If I were Jon Stewart, I'd stop obsessing with CNN and start worrying about the younger, funnier @iamjohnoliver getting his job....,” Morgan writes on Twitter.

Unfortunately, not even his followers agree with him on that: he might have been offended by what Stewart said but that doesn’t change the fact that it was the truth.

“For sheer accumulation of wrongness, there is only one source that matters: CNN,” Stewart said, blaming news agencies and big cable networks for sensationalizing the news and reporting on speculation, rumors, and hearsay.

“We’re in an abusive relationship with CNN and it’s time we kicked these bastards to the curb because we have to remember: this network was created by Ted Turner, not Ike Turner,” Stewart concluded his message by saying.
