35. No, but that CNN tried to make these shows appear as news

And that is what Jon Stewart was saying - that he did a disservice by taking part in so-called news shows as journalistic commentator without making it clear that was his job to be a partisan hack for entertainment purposes.

These 24 hr day cable news station never make the distinction between news/entertainment - we all know that O'really & Limpballs are not journalists, just talk show hosts, but they think of themselves as journalists!
