Matthews, O’Reilly To Debate During Jon Stewart’s Autism Benefit - 8pm ET (OP Updated)

[Tx4obama]

Sunday evening (tonight) on Comedy Central - 8pm ET

On Sunday night, Comedy Central will be airing Jon Stewart‘s autism benefit, “The Night of Too Many Stars.” The show is highlighting “rivals,” particularly featuring MSNBC’s Chris Matthews and Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly — who debated the issues in a rather unconventional way.

After inhaling helium from balloons.

“Neither participant shall be permitted to speak without first filling their lungs with helium,” CNN’s John King informed.
