So Jon Stewart has won the emmy seven years in a row. I have always been aware of his show and enjoyed the clips that go viral here and their on Huffington Post.
As the election season heats up and Stewarts material improves I have been watching nightly. Sorry Conan. Stwart, or he and his writers are brilliant. Just moments ago I watched him discussing the occupy Wall Street movements. His monitoring of the ludicrous coverage on Cable news, especially Fox although not exclusively is brilliant. He does a great job educating, exposing hypocracy, and having fun. These are great things, still getting all your news from Jon Stewart which we are told many young people do is not the best answer.
He is articulate, funny and witty. He is must see tv. One should remembr however that while occasionally his derision is to make a point, it is still for entertainment purposes. It should not be taken as gospel.
