Daily Show: Gerrymandering
This clip is a satire on racial gerrymandering. Start at 40 seconds to avoid language.
Daily Show: 2016 Election
This video clip looks at "Presidential Dynasties" and would be great to start a discussion about the American process for choosing presidential candidates. This clip is appropriate for any government class.
Daily Show: Civil Liberties Debate
This interview with Andrew Napolitano touches on the debate between safety and civil liberties. Content is appropriate for any class.
Daily Show: Public Opinion
This is a great clip to show how unreliable polls can be. It is a good review of leading questions, inaccurate sampling, and media bias. NOTE: I would recommend stopping this clip 30 seconds before the end for language that is likely not appropriate for the classroom.
