Last Week Tonight with John Oliver

S01E21 Military Translators

2014-10-19

Title: Military Linguists Plot: Linguists who supported the U.S. Armed Forces in Afghanistan and Iraq face severe threats upon returning home, yet bureaucratic hurdles are preventing many from escaping. John Oliver speaks with FNU Mohammad, a translator who successfully fled. Additionally, due to the prohibition of cameras during Supreme Court deliberations, the media coverage of crucial cases is subpar. John creatively addresses this issue by incorporating real animals and artificial paws into the reporting, enhancing the visual appeal.
