Jon Stewart Eviscerates Fox News Again
Last night the Daily Show did what the Daily Show often does so artfully — uses past audio and video clips to highlight blatant hypocrisy — to Fox News, only last night’s takedown went beyond just about anything I’ve seen Jon Stewart and his staff do previously. The segment, which drove a knife through the heart of Fox News’ trademark claim of being a “fair and balanced” legitimate news organization, was downright surgical in its precision. I kind of felt the urge to stand and cheer when it was done. Yes, it was that good.
It’s becoming increasingly difficult to argue that Fox News prime time lineup is anything more than the propaganda wing of the Republican party. I’ve defended them for years but their bias has gone past the point of ridiculousness in the last few years, particularly with the addition of Glenn Beck, as evidenced here:

Editor-in-Chief:
Best quote from that terrific segment: “Obama is Stalin, but Bush was stalling.”
Perhaps he could do the same for CNN, MSNBC, CNBC, NPR, Time, Newsweek and all other news organizations who get a thrill up their leg when they think of Obama.
Stewart has been blasting CNN a lot lately. You haven’t noticed that? What’s up with that?
Hell, in the above segment he even mentions that MSNBC is partisan and that the Obama spokeswoman should even say so.
Cheryl S, you obviously do not know what you are talking about. If The president messes up then John Stewart calls him on the carpet. It is just the blatant disrespect and bias of Fox that makes it so absurd. They go out of the way to be extremly bias and run a daily hate campaign against the president. I look at Fox from time to time just to see what lies are going to be told so I can prepare myself for the untruthful claims that will come. Also to see how crazy that the claims get. It sometimes even funny.
Fox News were so fair and balanced that we decided after the election we would hire more balanced conservatives, Mike huckabee and Glen beck and let our only liberal Colmes “work on his blog?”. Hello wake up Cheryl. P.S CNBC and NPR get a thrill up there legs? Do you even watch or listen to those? Fox news viewers are the biggest Koolaid drinkers
You People just don’t get it!!!!!! John Stewart is just a pinhead!!!!! Fox News is the only “HONEST” news broad cast show out there!!!! The rest have no Ideal what they are talking about. They are all so far left, it is a sin.!!!!! Talk about not reporting the news.
If FOX NEWS is so bad, why has it been voted the best News channel , out of all of them???? Also, the top ten reporters come from Fox.. Like I said, you people just done get it!!!!!
