Breakabone - So knowing there would only be a few minutes to fit in an interview, the Daily Show would have an interview go for 20? I never said Stewart wasn't smart, just dishonest. The interview was planned to go long, to be edited "for length" and then broadcast. Once again, at least the real news channels do it live so there is no question. I'd love to see the full length interview be made available.

Fox6 - You have provided an excellent example of what I'm writing about. They pander to you. I think Colbert is funnier than Sewart, though, especially with the whole Bear thing. His satire is more pointed at the medium of political punditry than specifically biased against right wing opinion, but his interviews are just as pathetically bad and dishonest as Stewart's. For the record, I hate Nancy Grace and Bill O'Reilly probably more than you do (don't forget Anne Coulter and Sean Hannity), because they m ake my party look bad (I am now offically a Republican because I wanted to vote in this year's primary). I love Glenn Beck, even with his sometimes over the top flaws, just for his excellent bullshit detector when it comes to lies from both sides of the political isle.
