The F-Word You Say!
By Mitch Berg
What? You’re trying to tell me that “The Daily Show” and Jon Stewart lies via misleading editing, especially in re the Tea Parties?
Pfft. Next you’ll be saying that Colbert isn’t a real smug clueless blowhard conservative pundit.

Adam Graham at Pajamas Media wrote a piece last month addressing Stewart’s edit jobs.

When you consider the lengths the leftymedia goes through to ply the dim-wit demographic with BS, it’s little wonder that most dim-wits turn into lefties.
So, maybe his “condition” is not entirely teh peevee’s fault.

That’s not a bad piece, Mitch. Love the Stewart show, but I think most of these criticisms are probably true.

Oops. Angryclown meant to agree with the Pajamas Media piece linked by BradC. The Mitch link didn’t work.

I actually get the odd laugh from Stewart. I mean, he’s a capable comic. But way too many people take TDS as reporting…

Yeah. Michael Moore suffers from an extreme case of the same thing. He’s got talent, but he’s pretty worthless if you take him seriously. And too many people do.

Well, clown, Michael Moore is praised as a documentarian by both Hollywood and the MSM, so your take on him shines an interesting light on how you should take both those institutions.

I appreciate the attempt to leverage one opinion you agree with into a shot at getting Angryclown to sign onto an unthinking belief in your whole kooky ideology, nerd, but Angryclown ain’t buying.

Yeah, nerbert! There is no way you’re going to get angryclown to go back on years of crazy talk so easily.

Wow AC, three comments in a row without insulting people. Anything wrong?
IMO MM isn’t a documentarian he is a propogandist. Less talented than Eisenstien or Reifenstal (sp?)
Stewart and Colbert are resonably talented liberal comics. Some people take them seriously, that is a problem but they label themselves and their shows as comedy. MM presents himself as something he isn’t.
