How do comedy shows use humor to critique political corruption and the blending of personal indulgence with public service responsibilities?

This clip demonstrates how political satire shows expose corruption by using absurd juxtapositions - correspondents getting personal grooming treatments while discussing serious political scandals involving NYC Mayor Eric Adams. The comedy format highlights the irony of discussing "naked corruption" and lack of integrity in leadership while the commentators themselves engage in questionable behavior, charging personal spa services to the show's credit card. This satirical approach makes political commentary more accessible while drawing parallels between different forms of inappropriate conduct in positions of responsibility.
