Comic Tyler Fischer may not be a household name but his spot-on skewering of liberal news outlets is drawing raves from Twitter users for a brief video in which he hit all the marks in heaping deserved ridicule on shows that are parodies of themselves.

As Vulture reported, Wilmore opened last night’s show by addressing the fact that so many people are still doubting the women who are alleging that Cosby drugged and assaulted them, calling out Cosby for embarking on an ill-timed and poorly named comedy tour, and for shushing hecklers with a creepy “Shh…shh…” approach. Wilmore does have a point. It is a really bad idea to send someone in the middle of a high-profile sexual...
