Lol. That brought giggles to my heart. (Saddened, of course, by the truth of it all...)
I can't stand shows that have two sides arguing senselessly at one another and claim to call it a debate. The first part of the transcript wasn't too bad, but there certainly was a lot of ganging up on Jon Stewart. Personally, I LOVE Jon. . . he's wonderfully funny and well informed(and when he is "wrong" in his oppinion, he usually recognises it...)
But attacking him for criticizing their show and how it functions was done inappropriately. Jon had some very good points that he was trying to make. Also, talking to John Kerry like he was a human being does not make Jon a lap dog. I think it was unfair to accuse him of sucking up to the man simply because he had a civil conversation with him.
An interview is not made better or more valid by being an a** to your interviewee... it just makes you an a**.

Hey CapnRahn! {I'm doing pretty good - thanks for asking
}
And thanks, TMurrie, for posting the video link. I'm glad I read the transcript first because the multiple people talking at the same time made it hard to hear what Jon was saying and it was nice to have the words in front of me ( on a side note, when did talking at the same time as another person, and continuing loudly until the other person just gives up and stops, become acceptable? Crossfire hosts, I'm talking to you. Just seems rude to me. This is one of the major reasons I can't stand talking head shows).
I shaved my beard for you, devil woman!

Tucker Carlson was a perfect victim. He parodied himself at every turn, proving Jon Stewart's charges with his every word and action.
I especially like the way he cherry-picked the questions from Stewart's interview with Kerry. Unfortunately, that was only clear to those of us who saw that interview, as well as Stewart's interviews with Ralph Reed and John McCain.
And the moniker "Deception Lane" can be applied to all mass media as far as I'm concerned.

Jon Stewart is an idiotic weasel. Now, the ratings for that stupid show of his are finally going down.

The hell, CrevanReaver?
Jon Stewart owns.
You know it, I know it, just admit it.

put the crackpipe down, darlin'.
those 2 jackasses were trying to crack on stewart for not asking "hard" questions.
uh...let me see...the daily show is on the COMEDY NETWORK.
stewart was right. he's not a journalist. his show is NOT a "news" show. it's an entertainment show.
tucker carson is the weasel and he and his pal sure got served.

Harsh? Those words are kind as far as I'm concerned. Jon Stewart is a stupid, useless, bitch. He probably got that job by performing a blowjob on an executive at Comedy Central.
Fuck Jon Stewart and the rest of the hollywood idiots...
He's nothing more than a butt-monkey for the DEMONcratic Party. When Kerry was on that shitty show of his, Stewart spent the entire time licking Kerry's asshole. He didn't once ask him a legitimate question.

I'm glad to hear that the rating on the Daily Show are dropping. Hopefully this will lead to the show being cancelled, which will lead to Stewart losing his money, which will lead to him being destitute, which will lead him becoming a male hooker, which will lead to him selling his ass and mouth to really fat and dirty gay men, which will lead to him getting arrested, which will lead to him getting into more serious crimes, which will lead to him going to prison, which will lead to him getting butt-raped, which will lead to him getting infected with AIDS, which will hopefully lead to him killing himself.
Now that pussy-assed faggot is actually feuding with Tucker Carlson.

Your critical examination of Stewart's points was eloquent and well-reasoned. You've certainly convinced me! This kind of high caliber retort is why those whining liberals don't stand a chance. In short, you're my hero.

If you hate the guy so much...why did you watch his show?
And...you do know he runs a *comedy* show, right? Not a news program?
