OMG Thank you so much for posting this! I watch that show all the time and I always think he should do a piece on ME/CFS! But every time I go to submit it as a topic, I google search until I'm crazy and then I give up!I have submitted request to Last Week Tonight with John Oliver to make a report on ME/CFS

Last Week Tonight is a weekly news comedy show but it is very respected and influential. I think it would immensely help us if they reported that the Senate has cut the funding for such a disabling illness down to zero.
I left the link above. Please comment to show many people are interested in this topic. Add relevant information that I have forgotten. Feel free to correct me there in the comments if I wrote something you disagree with. Like posts.
It's HBO's site and it's really easy to sign up, you just need an e-mail address.
Let's try and get our voices heard.
For those of you not familiar with "Last Week Tonight with John Oliver" - it has become a huge hit! It is seen as the replacement for "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart".
Even if he didn't discuss recent proposed funding cuts specifically... Just to have him do a piece on the lack of ME/CFS funding in general would be huge in terms of raising awareness for our disease!
