In Jon Stewart's skit, he pointed out 2 fallacies that i caught onto, the first of which being, Red Herring, where the Mexicans or what they called "illegal immigrants" were bringing disease back into the country. They blamed 7000 cases on immigrants, which isn't very accurate giving that 60 minutes disputed it. The next fallacy they pick up is comparing the few and labeling the entire race as lepers, which was also disputed to 60 minutes. It is very funny, same thing they did to the Irish and blacks, and anyone else that the United States was concerned with. Its very funny... very sad, and very ignorant.
