“Some people get their “news” from Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert. Sad, really.”
What’s sad is that they are the PRIMARY News Source for males under 25, ESPECIALLY on a college campus.
When a FAKE NEWS SHOW is the Primary News source for a large segment of the population, hello Houston, WE HAVE A PROBLEM!
When Stewart (who keeps drawing attn to his Jewishness, even though he changed his name from Leibowitz and professes athiesm) creates a puppet McCain to call him "Jew Boy"...that's to make himself into the person victim of John McCain.
It was that moment that prompted this thread. I've been watching the show lately to try to understand the "cool" factor. I just can't get it.
How can a guy who's on the wrong end of forty, with a speech impediment and hair plugs be "cool"?
And he's so dadgum MEAN--have you seen that youtube of him at Northwestern University, saying "f*** you, Sarah Palin" over and over? The hateful, enraged look in his eyes? This is what a lot of young people are admiring.
He's a shallow, pathetic coward, but people underestimate his currency and pull.
