After last night’s “Last Week Tonight,” HBO lawyers are gonna want to buy their legal pads in bulk. John Oliver absolutely destroyed litigious coal executive Bob Murray — again — and had some fun at his employer’s expense along the way. (Yes, also again.)
Two years ago, the last time Oliver and his writers went at Murray, the then-Murray Energy CEO sued, threatening that “Home Box Office is in for the fight of its existence,” Oliver read off from a letter his show received.
“Which, look, might actually be true, but not because of his lawsuit,” he said.
