John Stewart owns Fox News. Twice.
Petey:
theres nothing wrong with it per say...but would you go to cnn for cartoons?
would you go to nickelodeon for the weather? its news presented on a comedic platform.
personally i dig that show but do not depend on it to feed me news and current events...

that makes no sense, those channels dont have anything like u mentioned
he makes fun of news but the content is still NEWS, its just discussed differently, same way fox and cnn discuss the topic differently in their own view. Besides in america u dont get REAL news, go to other countries and see how much news u miss from around the world. I was in England and i was getting news from US, u will never get here. CNN AND FOX are owned by entertainment companies so their news is just entertainment too, thats why they like to get stuck on one topic from time to time; ex mj death, ana nicole death, linsey lohan, etc...
Petey:
i think in the eyes of most posters here it would make perfect sense.
you dont walk into your local supermarket looking to pick up a pair of jays...you might get some bo bo's or a pair of flip flops but not j's just like you dont go into footlocker looking for a pack of franks... and if they sold meat and produce at footlocker would you want to eat it?? what im saying is your comparison is a stretch.
I seriously doubt that ppl are watching jon stewart to become knowledgeable about world affairs.
im not going to debate semantics about what constitutes real news and where its from...i agree that all these american based networks are full of shit.
elena heiress (i think thats her name) is a baaaaaad bitch.

i understand what u were saying, u dont have to explain further, i just say jon stewart is different and yea he's not a source for all the world affairs, maybe some but its def. news, u just have to dig deeper yourself to find out all of it, he just mentions some of it. I personally use internet for news, i dont watch cnn, fox or any of the local channels.
