Imagine someone on the Right saying this about Chelsea Clinton or Obama's daughters ON AIR.
The Left, with their fake moral outrage and social justice BS would go completely batshit crazy, calling everyone with any kind of opinion on it, racist, woman haters, misogynistic etc and it would be headline news for months.
BUT if your on the Left and its done to attack "the other team", you're completely fine. Just issue a quick fake apology and it then barely makes the news and is forgotten about by dinner time. That is called open bias and hypocrisy.

I'm not going to suggest there isn't hypocrisy when it comes to these things because there clearly is, however, there is outrage over this. Samantha Bee has been the #1 trending topic on Twitter all day and many of those tweets are angry. Angry enough that two of her show's sponsors have pulled out and the network itself has apologized (as has she).
