Be sure to watch tonite's Daily Show (destroys Tweety, MSNBC, Fineman..
etc.)

Replay at 1AM ET and a couple of times tomorrow.

Jon Stewart beats the ever-lovin tar out of Tweety, Fineman and others over their blatantly bigoted commentary on Sharpton's speech.

Al is certainly flawed, but these people are just rotten.

2. I don't know, it's shown 4 times
twice at night and twice the next day. I would assume viewership is even higher during the convention.

In fact, more people probably watch Jon Stewart than Tweety.

5. Chris's interview with Jon or

either he was talking about Jon Stewart, can't remember, anyway Chris said that he wished he had Jon's audience. I took that to mean his numbers. Maybe he meant his demographics. Maybe both!

8. 640,000 views among 18-to-49-year olds
TV Guide. November 8-14. The Robin's Report. On page 34.

"The Max Fact

More young American s get their news from Jon Stewart than anywhere else. Well, sort of. What can't be denied is that Comedy Centrals' "The Daily Show" (11 pm/ET), Stewart's nightly send-up of the news, draws an average 640,000 views among 18-to-49-year olds. That beats Fox News Channel's 527,000, CNN's 286,000, MSNCB's 162,000 and CNBC's 72,000."

7. the best!
That was what I needed. Stewart nailed those bastards.

I watched the Sharpton speech (on cspan) and thought he was magnificent. Then I see how the news people are spinning it and I feel like I am losing my mind. And it takes a comedy show to tell the truth. Too sad.
