John Oliver addresses the similarities between Robert Herring’s Right-Wing Conservative News Channel, OAN, and Ron Burgundy, the fictitious character from the movie Anchorman. All and all, John Oliver points out how ridiculously bias and fake OAN News is and how dangerous their fake news broadcasting can be when it comes to misleading the public. 

OAN News even lies about having their content being sent to the Archives Library of Congress and the host Graham Ledger proudly claims at the end of each broadcast, that “Even When He Is Wrong, He Is Right.”
