Jimmy Fallon, Brian Williams 'Slow Jam The News' About Obama & Super PACs (VIDEO)

First Posted: 02/28/2012 10:33 am Updated: 02/28/2012 10:33 am

The world was long overdue for another installment of Jimmy Fallon's "Slow Jam The News" with Brian Williams and The Roots, and on Monday night's "Late Night" we got our fix.

The perfect mix of topical comedy and smooth R&B rhythms, this particular slow jam takes on President Obama's recent reversal of his opposition to super PACs. It might not sound sexy, but trust us: these guys can slow jam anything.

Also, Obama wasn't the only headline-maker who made it into the jam. After one verse, listen for The Roots to put in their two cents about Chris Brown and Rihanna collaborating. Watch the full video above.

HUFFPOST, will You PLEASE get your s**t together? You have international sites but half the viodeos can not be seen outside the US. Not even to a US citizen in Germany stationed there to guard our empire. This is disgusting.

The only embarrassment I can see comes from a true American - the kind without humor and the insufferable selfrighteousness to claim others should be the same.
