If ever there was grist for the Daily Show mill, it is the fight between the richies and the environmentalists over the proposed wind farm in Nantucket Sound. Finally, the Daily Show has aimed its laserlike focus on the Cape, and the results are tentatively scheduled to air Thursday, August 2.
The Daily Show selected Jason Jones, the correspondent most likely to take his shirt off, to send to the Cape. Brace yourselves for shots of a shirtless Jones sunning himself on a yacht or splashing around on a beach.
Individuals for and against Cape Wind were interviewed. The people for Cape Wind felt more comfortable with the Daily Show camera crew, although they may have been duped. Audra Parker, who is with the anti-Cape Wind Alliance to Protect Nantucket Sound, said of her Daily Show interview: "I wouldn't say it was pleasant."
