Jon Stewart to media on ACORN: “Where the hell were you?”
Hot Air ^ | SEPTEMBER 16, 2009 | ED MORRISSEY

Posted on 09/16/2009 11:05:45 AM PDT by RobinMasters

Kudos to Jon Stewart, who doesn’t sugar-coat the embarrassment at all — to the apparent delight of his audience, who get kudos of their own. How can the national news media ignore the many allegations of corruption at ACORN, which gets millions of dollars in federal funding, and allow a couple of independents with $3,000 and a bad wardrobe scoop them on the undercover story of the year? It’s easy when newsrooms are more concerned with political direction than truth. Stick around to the end, when Stewart zings Michelle Malkin haters:

Normally I can’t stand Jon Stewart because of his own unabashed shilling for 0bozo & the demoRATs. However it was good to see him at least once or occasionally point out the hypocrisy of the liberal left-wing retarded media.

Just watch the YouTube highlights or videos like this for the OCCASIONAL Stewart program ripping demoRATs or MSM. Otherwise he is in the liberal retard tank 99% of the time, just like all the so called late night comedy talk show hosts....100% liberal retards.

What does it say when John Stewart covers a story before Katie, Brian, and Charlie?

It means fake journalists have more integrity than the MSM.

Both versions were prominent in their sidebars.

I BELIEVE IT GOES DEEPER...the libs, the blacks on the “democrat plantation”, especially the lefties and the MSM are so used to ‘gettin’ over on the man and copping whatever we can and doing everything illegally ..that they really knew about Acorn in a general way and thought, well, that’s what we do.

we have screwed up people who think they are “helping the downtrodden” while the others are selfishly getting some gravy on the way.

There’s a guy who never worries about ratings. Or getting capped on the way to his car by Obama supporters. Or how few conservatives will shed a tear the day it happens.

Well Katie Couric is one taco short of a combination platter. She didn’t break 1000 on the SAT, and is a pretty dim bulb overall. I’m not surprised she would get scooped time and time again.

But Brian and Charlie can’t use their incompetence as a shield like Katie can. I wonder who decides what they cover? Their balls are in a lockbox, and they seem to enjoy being muzzled.

LOL I love it!! The ending is the best when he says we have to turn this around and make fox look bad - and the whole thing with the acorn being a seed AND a nut -etc...

This is so awesome! ACORN is being dragged down by a couple of young kids. I love it. God bless America.

I thought I was going to lose it when he threw in ‘genital contractor.’

Fell off my chair when he got to the ‘shipping charges’ on Guatemalan girls.

There are 300,000+ people on this site...not everyone sees the same things...

Exactly. That was my point. How many threads are posted every day, with how many comments?

And I'm pretty in touch with FReeperisms ...... seriesly.
