About this Quote

This quote by Mo Rocca is describing the suggestion of "separate but equal" which was a lawful doctrine in the United States that allowed for segregation of races. This teaching was overturned by the Supreme Court in 1954, however the effects of segregation still stick around today. The quote is claiming that the concept of different however equal was never going to function, and that the only way to link the gap in between the two sides was to produce something new. This brand-new thing is the Daily Show, a satirical information program that integrates comedy as well as information to produce an unique crossbreed. The quote is claiming that the Daily Show is the outcome of the pendulum of history turning backward and forward, and also ultimately coming to relax in the type of this brand-new crossbreed. The Daily Show is a method to link the space between the two sides, and also to bring individuals with each other in a manner that separate however equivalent never could.
