To the surprise of no one who’s been subject to his writing, especially in recent years, Andrew Sullivan was an absolute disaster during a panel on racism on The Problem with Jon Stewart. In a shocking display of self-awareness, Sullivan realized he looked like an a-hole, so naturally, he took to his Substack where he claimed the booker for Stewart’s show “ambushed” him by presenting the appearance as a one-on-one interview. Naturally, Stewart did not let that accusation stand and went to bat for his employee who “patiently handled [Sullivan’s] high maintenance shenanigans.” (The Wrap)
