White House press secretary Jay Carney claimed that the toughest interview President Obama had during the 2012 presidential campaign was with the Daily Show’s Jon Stewart.
"I think if you look back at 2012, and the series of interviews the sitting president of the United States gave - probably the toughest interview he had was with Jon Stewart," Carney said during a George Washington University event Thursday.
"I think its a reflection of the fact that somebody like Jon Stewart is actually a very smart sophisticated both consumer of and presenter of the news, he just packages it in a way that draws eyeballs," Carney added.
