Remember when everyone was mad at Bank of America and Delta for pulling out of controversial 'Julius Caesar' production? Don't let Sessions distract you folks -- this crap is still going on.

Noah broke down the scandal on The Daily Show last night and wondered if Fox News pundits had actually read the play they were pouncing on.

"Now, clearly putting a Trump lookalike into Julius Caesar angered a lot of people. Plus, the play totally ignores that it was Ted Cruz’s dad who actually killed Caesar, but that’s beside the point,” Noah said.

Watch and feel anxious here:

On to the next internet outrage!
