Tooning Out The News season 2 episode 13, titled "WEDNESDAY 3/24/21 VIRTUE SIGNAL (Marc Lamont Hill)," brings a fresh dose of satire and comedy to the current events surrounding the United States. Hosted by a cast of animated characters, the show features a mix of interviews, sketches, and satirical news segments that poke fun at the most recent happenings in American politics.

In this episode, the guest is Marc Lamont Hill, who is an academic, writer, and activist. The show's hosts use the opportunity to engage with Hill on a range of topics such as race, politics, and culture. They also touch on some of the recent controversies Hill has been involved in, including his sacking by CNN in 2018 after he made remarks in support of Palestinian rights.

As always, the show also features numerous segments that satirize the current political climate in the country. The sketches are both hilarious and insightful and touch on a range of topics, including the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the recent surge in anti-Asian hate crimes, and the controversial social media platform, Parler.

One of the most standout segments in this episode sees "Tommy Tuberville" and "Mitch McConnell" discussing their latest accomplishments. They end up in a heated argument over the use of the term "virtue signaling" and showcase how the term has been weaponized by politicians to discredit others' genuine attempts to make a difference. In this case, they even joke that it's now getting in the way of their own ability to virtue signal.

Another hilarious segment looks at Fox News' attempts to spin the fresh allegations of sexual misconduct against NY Governor Andrew Cuomo. In the segment, the hosts of Tooning Out The News are able to probe the hypocrisy of Fox News' approach to Governor Cuomo by showing the network's own issues with sexual misconduct allegations and their unabashed support for Donald Trump, despite his numerous allegations of sexual misconduct.

All in all, the episode provides a much-needed laugh and a moment of levity amid the rigors of real-world politics. The show's ability to poke fun at the most contentious issues of the day while still maintaining an informative and entertaining tone is a testament to the masterful writing and animation on display.
