that the telecommunications company helped build OAN, the far-right One America News Network, which is notorious for spreading COVID misinformation and conspiracy theories.
Oliver stated that, according to the Reuters report, "OAN's founder Robert Herring testified AT&T executives once told him they wanted a conservative network, and he claims, 'When they said that, I jumped to it and built one.' And once he built the channel, AT&T carried it first on their U-Verse system and then on DirecTV."
"OAN has grown into the toxic network it is today," stated Oliver. He continued as a picture of MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell appeared over his shoulder, "One that's happy to give a platform to batshit election fraud theories from America's most out-of-breath pillow fetishist.
"That is such a relief! Especially that last part. Because if I may, I'd like to use that generous editorial independence to offer some constructive feedback to AT&T," said Oliver, before he launched into a series of tagline suggestions for the company. "Take AT&T's recent campaign. 'More for your thing, that's our thing,' which is, respectfully, complete gibberish. It sounds like Yoda pitching a penis-enlargement device. It is so nonsensical I have to assume something was lost in communication, which actually would be a much more appropriate slogan for the company," suggested Oliver.
No different than the propaganda out out by CNN, WaPo, NYT and other MSM.
