John Stewart on Crossfire

When President Bush addressed the Republican National Convention last month, the biggest television audience wasn’t tuned to ABC, CBS or NBC. Instead, the largest single group of viewers was glued to Fox News, the cable news channel that was only a blip on TV’s radar screen just four years ago.

A number of recent polls have shown that the most influential source of political news among younger viewers is “The Daily Show” — the satirical fake news show hosted by comedian Jon Stewart, who has recently admitted on his own show that he is Pro-Kerry. Candidly John Stewart has stated that he will fabricate any story he has to, to ’steal’ votes away from Bush, and get laughs from my fellow pot smokers. “I can believe so many young people watch my show, and actually believe what I say”, Stewart said on a recent appearance on a local radio station. Stewart went on to say, “When republicans realize I hate Bush, they turn the channel. When democrats see my bias, they stay tuned. But the best part is when the election is over; America’s retarded youth will forget all I have said.”
