The Daily Show, unlike traditional network (i.e., “corporate") media, delves into the realities of our bought government. Ironically, the truth is more entertaining than fiction. Keep up the good work, Jon. You’re the proverbial voice-in-the-wilderness. You lend hope to tens of thousands who, otherwise, wouldn’t have the opportunity to see and hear the charade we call government-by-and-for-the-people.

Actually, the “Daily Show” is more informative because the commentary is more incisive.
