Jon Stewart eviscerates media over blizzard coverage

New York City was spared the brunt of the massive snowstorm that hit parts of Long Island, Connecticut, Rhode Island and Massachusetts on Tuesday.

And like many New Yorkers, Jon Stewart was unimpressed by what he called "Blizzapocalypsegeddon '15."

"My guess is, if you are watching this program, New York is gone," Stewart said at the top of "The Daily Show" Tuesday. "I hope you remember us for our world-class pizza and bridges, and not for our tendency to tell people who innocently happen to have their eyes locked with our eyes to go f--- themselves."

The "Daily Show" host spent the beginning of his show eviscerating the media's breathless coverage of the storm, including CNN's "Blizzardmobile."

"Blizzardmobile? Settle down, Batman, it’s a Ford Explorer,” Stewart quipped.

But the Comedy Central star admitted that New York City-based news organizations were left with few options when the storm largely missed Manhattan.

"Acknowledge that conditions have changed. Ease up on the breathless hype. Focus your attention on New England, where it was actually really snowing," Stewart said. "Or desperately cling to the original narrative like dingleberries on a sheep's a--."

Stewart also mocked New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio's sign language interpreter, and the mayor's assertion that food delivery bicycles were not allowed on the streets after 11 p.m. because they are not considered emergency vehicles.

"Not an emergency vehicle?" Stewart joked. "Sounds to me like someone's never been stoned at midnight with no ready source of crab Rangoon."
