When will conservative commentators stop picking fights with Jon Stewart? It never ends well for them. If you have a spare 12 minutes, watch this clip all the way through to the end. You know what, I’ve always wanted to do this too. Hey – Fox News – go fuck yourselves!
The current rise of populism challenges the way we think about people’s relationship to the economy.We seem to be entering an era of populism, in which leadership in a democracy is based on preferences of the population which do not seem entirely rational nor serving their longer interests. ...
The server will be getting hardware changes this evening starting at 10pm NZDT.
The site will be off line for some hours.
This is (un)seriously funny. I increased the size of the display so people could get a good view of it.
Thanks Lynn. A good view is needed of that dance he does at the end. I’d like to try it myself but I’d probably just throw a hip out.
More seriously though, how is a rational person supposed to respond to Fox News? What do you do in the face of insane bias presented as “fair and balanced”? Is Stewart’s response the only one possible?
Pretty much. I view Fox ‘news’ as just being entertainment. The only people who could view it as being news are the seriously deranged
Given that Fox News is the watched news channel in America….
And yes, the obvious inference can be made.
Of course watching the conduct of their foreign and economic policy tends to support this. Especially the motivations behind the zombie-like lurching into conflicts like Vietnam and Iraq v2.
On the other hand, their mastery of turning technology into dollars is simply masterful.
On the other hand, their management of their forthcoming social security deficit crisis is abysmal …
On the other hand…
Well the country is just plain weird. Watching Fox ‘news’ is merely a symptom.
I’m not sure that many Fox viewers would understand the jokes!
Such a shame we can’t get him on C4 anymore. I always thought Americans didn’t get irony- then I started watching John and Tina Fey.
It’s on Comedy Central nightly at 7:30 (re-run of previous night) and 10:30.
The daily show’s web page has all the clips you could want.
I only wish when Stewart has Orielly on his show he would go after him more.
Lanthanide:
Is that the international version he does, or the USA version?
US version.
watched it the other night and he did a bit on Goldman Sachs and the gop, yeah, those fucking guys…

Here’s Goldberg having a wee cry.
Goldberg v Stewart isn’t new.
Best twelve minutes of my day
Screw the argument – I’m frankly mesmerized by the glam shade of orange that is O’Reilly’s skin-tone. D-e-l-i-c-i-o-u-s.
Is lupus contagious?
won’t play on my pc – says I need to install adobe flash. Which I’ve tried to do – several times – but it never seems to work.
Loved this link.
Lynn, is there anyway of encoding/embedding these type of vids so they play on the iPhone?
The day Flash is dead and buried can’t come soon enough.
Nope not that I’m aware of. Apple are dead against flash (can’t really blame them – massive security hole). But you can play YouTube on the iPhone. So I suppose I could look at doing links to YouTube when it is available there.
I’ll ponder that today
Nas had a go at fox news in this song:
