This last Sunday night, John Oliver gave us a rare example of pop news covering net neutrality, the associated monopolization, revolving door government appointments and the strong-arming of Netflix.

From The Week:

On Sunday night's Last Week Tonight, Oliver tackled net neutrality, the idea that all legal content on the internet should be served up to your house on a level playing field. The Federal Communications Commission is considering new rules that would allow a two-tiered system. Oliver, like most net neutrality proponents, isn't impressed: "The point is, the internet in its current form is not broken, and the FCC is currently taking steps to fix that."

    Ever heard of John Oliver before?

    He used to work for The Daily Show (still might, I have no clue).

    He's a comedian.
