Anybody else think Jon Stewart did a good job
eviscerating the mainstream media for their shitty spin, coverage and questions at the democratic convention?

It seems to me he spent the week spanking them for being a bunch of idiots, obsessed with minutia.

1. Yep!
Sadly, the mainstream media are too arrogant and/or stupid to get it.

2. Yes
I really liked his defense of Al Sharpton - he showed how extreme all of the pundits' criticism was in relation to what Al actually said.

4. Highlights
If anyone would like to post some descriptions of Daily Show highlights from the DNC that would be great! I stopped having cable a couple of months ago, and I'm in total Daily withdrawal!

5. Caught him on Nightline Wednesday night
Edited on Fri Jul-30-04 09:36 AM by sybylla
Kopppel was giving him kudos for holding the feet of the whores to the fire. The interview centered somewhat around his show, the role it plays in our younger culture as provider of information, though Jon strenuously objected to that tag and said he hoped it wasn't the case.

It was a great interview and a nice opportunity to see Jon Stewart off the set. It proved he is a very bright and gifted man.

edited for clarity and typos.
