Several weeks ago, the University of Virginia Center for Politics and the University Programs Council brought Mo Rocca to speak as part of the National Symposium on Political Humor.

Last night, they brought Lewis Black and William Durst to speak.

Black and Durst talked about political humor in time of war. Pictures below feature a segment about patriotism and rallying around the flag.
