Cable News Trending Topics for 2014-09-26
Yesterday, we learned that if you piss off One Direction fans you’re going to hear about it. The Daily Show ran a skit that said a new terrorist supergroup was forming that would include a member of One Direction, and their fans were not happy. The hashtag #thedailyshowgonetoofar was used a lot. Over 200K times as of this writing. The stats below only pick up the use of this hashtag when a screen name or hashtag of The Daily Show was also included. But trust me, it was all over twitter.

You can see the segment in question at the beginning of this clip.
Other than The Daily Show, ISIS seems to be the hot topic on Friday.
