Jon Stewart of Comedy Central’s The Daily Show is a big Public Image Limited (PiL)/John Lydon fan (that’s Johnny Rotten of The Sex Pistols if you didn’t know). He even had John Lydon on the show once. So when the time came to spoof the U.S. Health Care Reform Bill’s Public Option, Jon and his writing staff went for it. They used the logo from Public Image Limited and turned it into “Public Option Limited” on tonight’s show. I’m also a big fan of Public Image Limited (and of John Lydon’s solo stuff & The Sex Pistols) so I spotted this right away.
