John Stewart is the result of the superior "Public Ecudation System" in America...

"it’s been “The Daily Show” that has tenaciously tracked big, “super depressing” issues like the cherry-picking of prewar intelligence, the politicization of the Department of Justice and the efforts of the Bush White House to augment its executive power."

In other words, just another left-wing hackfest for dishonest liberals. At least Stewart is more entertaining than the other blowhards, but that just makes him more dangerous. Hey, if they want credibilty, why don't they make Michael Moore a news anchor? /s

He strikes me as a smarmy little rodent or maybe a weasel.

Mr. Stewart, the fake news anchor, came in at No. 4, tied with the real news anchors Brian Williams and Tom Brokaw of NBC, Dan Rather of CBS and Anderson Cooper of CNN.

Sounds like 5 fake news anchors to me and of the 5, I think Stewart is the most credible..
OR...
the least fake.

He’s an untalented, obnoxious left-wing hack, just like Colbert, although I actually find Colbert more annoying. The depressing part is all the stoned college kids who think he’s funny.

Jon Stewart was the biology teacher in the movie, ‘The Faculty’. When the alien took his body over, he should have stayed there rather than go on his quasinewsprogram.

Only the New York Times would pose such an inane question as some sort of profound rumination.

I am an educator. If you think public education is bad, have you tried our private system?

The facts are that most students tend to be liberal because they are poor and uneducated. When they become education, it is often by weak-kneed liberal teachers.

I teach college and most of my colleagues are weak-kneed liberals. BUT, we still have one of the best education systems in the world.

His is funny but....the sad thing is that many kids actually think his humor is a substitute for wisdom.

What is the The Daily Show and who is Jon Stewart?

In other words, most of we voters have never seen or heard of this guy the NY Slimes gushes about. Most US voters are too engrossed in TV soporifics and make up their minds on who to vote for by thinking the name on the ballot sounds good or seeing a last minuted campaign ad on TV.

The few who give a darn are here on FR and similar sites. Unfortunately, we are .05 percent of the populace.

I don’t know about that but in my mind the National Enquirer is now the Most Trusted Newspaper in America.

Don't get me wrong.

America has the best post-graduate education system in the World, especially in the Sciences.

But kids are being brainwashed to be losers & victims from Kindergarten on...
