"Stewart is a man “bravely battling pomposity and misinformation,”

I think not! That was enough for me, right there.

Yes, Stewart is a flaming liberal that puts even Dan Rather to shame. His show is still pretty funny, it's about the only television show I routinely watch. I can't stand it though when he "interviews" some liberal guest and they just bash conservatives for five minutes.

His “bravery” and much-vaunted grasp of political nuance consists mostly of his embrace of every reflexive assumption shared by every litmus-tested liberal holding forth at every chic Manhattan dinner party.

 

That pretty much sums it up for me...

I got a kick a few months ago reading about Stewart's crying hissy fit he threw when he arrive to what was supposed to be a Kerry victory party.
They should show that on the Daily show.

Stewart is a modern liberal who found a mask most people will buy into. It's marketing the same old message and bashing the guys who didbn;t makret it as well before him.

Whatever.

Though much of what Stewart and his cronies say about the press is acidly contemptuous, even this plays to the bottomless narcissism of many journalists: if nothing else, Stewart reassures them that they remain at the center of the world.

Nailed it.

The guy b-slapped Tucker Carlson. It's not as if it was anything out of the realm of possibility. Stewart is just the latest overrated blowhard to fill in for Bill Maher.

Why Jon Stewart Is All the Rage



Way too long to read.

The Daily Show is Funny. That's why Stewart is popular.

(The same reason Stan and Kyle are popular)

Darling of the MSM: they all come from the same school of fake journalism. They're in the news profession to be the news.

I read a little bit of this crap, but got bored pretty fast. Stewart's 15 minutes of fame is about up, no matter how much the lefties love his snotty remarks. Obviously, it doesn't take much to pander to an audience of liberal idiots. Remember Chevy Chase? He was the darling of the comedic left years ago, and now he's a bitter old has-been. I look forward to the same thing happening to stewart.

What makes the continuous editorial fellation of Stewart even more unbearble is that the Daily Show was much better before he had anything to do with it. I never missed an episode when Craig Kilborn was hosting; it jumped the shark the moment he jumped ship.

If anyone wanted to make a good, funny show of this type without such an ideological bent, they'd use the best, funniest Weekend Update host ever: Norm MacDonald.

Jon Stewart is the Jester in the court of the Shameless.

I've only seen his show in brief clips. I've seen the bit where he shows a clip of Bush speaking somewhere and mangling a few words...like Dubya usually does. Naturally the libs truly believe that the person with the best command of the language, a lib naturally like Garrison Keillor for example, is the wisest of the wise. But all they reveal are jackasses who can speak well. I've seen enough conceited, well-spoken fools who have the dimmest grasp of reality. Steward mostly resembles them.
