President Trump referring to Elizabeth Warren as “Pocahontas” at a White House event honoring Native American code talkers yesterday really shook up the news cycle. While many in the media preferred to focus on outrage over the president’s comment, Trevor Noah decided to also delve into Warren’s claim of Cherokee heritage in this segment on “The Daily Show”:
Donald Trump calling Elizabeth Warren "Pocahontas" is offensive, but as The #DailyShow points out, it's also a complicated situation.pic.twitter.com/3KMTfJgqWh

Would the mainstream media care to weigh in on Warren’s “problematic” relationship with the truth? Perhaps they’re too busy criticizing Trump for calling her “Pocahontas” to dig deeper.
Wow. And it's absurd that this is truly skocking. And insane that Noah is less partisan than the MSM. https://t.co/ki6iJA8XlV

It’s crazy that Noah talked about this but it needed to be talked about https://t.co/cURycUHqDL

A large segment of the MSM obviously don’t want to go there.
