So Arsenio Hall gets his late-night show cancelled because he had Minister Louis Farrakhan as a guest yet John Stewart Leibwitz is praised for his smartass show?!  I never watched the program by the way.  You people aren’t too bright.

What a hoot!  Isn’t there anything this guy won’t tackle?  I hope that they keep him on for many years to come.

just a little reminder, here, The Daily Show is a COMEDY SHOW.  Got it?  The only message he’s trying to send is a comedic one.

Jon Stewart makes me want to tear my hair out by what he chooses not to say. Many times he will tell it like it is, but on most occasions he ignores the big issues and I’m afraid he really does send a message of complacency to younger viewers, even if it’s unintentional.

Not to say that I don’t toke up and watch the same show as well…It just pains me to see such an intelligent man forced to ignore more difficult subjects because of his corporate sponsors/Viacom…

Not much to say other than every night at 11:00 I toke up, turn on the Daily Show and get my daily giggles. Hilarious!
