Jon Stewart blows away Crossfire
Jon Stewart sheds a very interesting light on what he believes is wrong with political news coverage during his appearance on CNN’s Crossfire. Kudos to Dave Winer for the links to torrent files. And here’s the transcript. It was pretty cool to watch him call these guys to task, saying, “You are hurting America. The media is hurting America.” Stewart blew off a question from an audience member about the mysterious bulge on Bush’s back captured on camera during the last debate, because he probably sees that issue as yet another thing that continues this theater-pretending-to-be-news charade going and keeps our eyes off the ball. (By the way, I’m using burst as my torrent client - pretty seamless.)
