John Oliver goes after big businesses in hilarious 15-minute rant
Watch Next

Many of John Oliver's recent rants have had a Trump-themed focus, but this week he's set his sights elsewhere: big businesses.

In particular, the giant corporations that gobble up any smaller companies that stand in their way, thereby gradually eating up the competition until customers have nowhere else to go.

The highlight? Oliver ranting twice about AT&T, despite the fact they may be merging with his own parent company TimeWarner.

"That's right, fuck you AT&T!" he yells at one point. "Even if you do take over, you'll NEVER BE MY REAL DAD!"
