With less than two weeks to go, news outlets are gearing up for election day. That also includes fake news outlets.
“It’s fun and it’s a big adrenaline rush,” said Marquette alum Chuck O’Neil, who is preparing to go live on election night as director of The Daily Show.
O’Neil spoke by phone from the show’s New York studio before the party’s conventions. As a 12-year Daily Show veteran, he isn’t phased by the work of election season.
“We’re just a pretty well-oiled machine,” he said.
