Yes, Stewart was on fire that night! This is one of the only shows I record and it seems as though he is at his best when he is pissed off and he was visibly pissed off that night. I don’t think I’ve ever seen him dedicate a whole show to one topic – Slamming CNBC! I think he has been jonesing since Bush left office, after all they provided him with more than enough material.
The real root of the media’s problem is that in the 24/7 information age – there is simply not enough news for 10 different news channels to cover, so they have manufacture something every hour or so. The sad thing is that pretty much no one holds anyone accountable for these manufactured news stories.
