The Daily Show Terminates Abortion Tweet after Backlash
Celebrate the #SCOTUS ruling! Go knock someone up in Texas!

Unfortunately for Noah and company, the response they got was anything but enthusiastic, with criticisms ranging from “offensive” to “vile,” and perhaps most derogatory, likening the tweet to the taste of O’Douls.
Not to pile on the Daily Show, but this just makes me remember how much I miss that show. What’s happening now isn’t worthy of the name. — (((Steph Haberman))) (@StephLauren) June 27, 2016
.@TheDailyShow This tweet is so vile.

@TheDailyShow From someone who was a guest on your show (and treated fairly): This was in exceptionally poor taste.

@TheDailyShow I’m all for offending someone for the sake of real humor. This? It’s like the O’Douls of bad taste.

Friends, we’re certainly not promoting abortions. Just excited about #SCOTUS reaffirming right to choose.
