Caught in the Crossfire

[Jon Stewart]This past Friday, Jon Stewart (former host of Short Attention Span Theater) found himself on the CNN debate show Crossfire as the lone guest. Typically on this show, the resident left-wing schill will team up with a guest left-wing schill to yell at and interrupt the resident right-wing schill and his guest right-wing schill about what passes for political news these days. Stewart has been a long-time critic of contemporary political coverage, and in particular the brand of “balanced” shows that Crossfire epitomizes. For reasons I may never understand, they actually had him on to talk about it; things didn’t go well.

Oh, if you don’t have Bit Torrent, Ifilm has a copy, too.

    The fact that a comedian, not a journalist, is the best critic of what passes for journalism these days is telling of the state of American news media. BTW, right-wing pricks like Tucker Carlson deserve it. I can’t believe PBS gave that guy his own show.
