Re: Jon Stewart Is Nobody's Monkey
Oh my goodness! At last, somebody has the guts to say that! I only hope that gets lots of air time (yeah, right).
The "political debate" shows I've seen have almost always been incredibly disappointing. Typically, it's one person who's somewhere to the right of Atilla the Hun "versus" some mealy-mouthed, slightly left-leaning Centrist. And that is their idea of "balance" and "fairness."
And Stewart's dead right -- such shows do inflict a tremendous amount of damage, in my opinion.
Sad that a comedian appears to be the most observant and politically savvy person on television.
Cheers,
Michael
