Slow news day in the UK, clearly. Channel 4 News covers the Jon Stewart / Jim Cramer kerfuffle.
Jon Stewart and Mike Huckabee debate gay marriage, in an insightful and grown-up manner. Choice quotes: “Religion is far more of a choice than homosexuality.” and “Semantics is cold comfort when it comes to humanity.”
The Daily Show digs out the clips proving politicians’ hypocrisy so the grown-up media doesn’t have to.
Outtakes from last week’s Late Night where Conan O’Brien, Stephen Colbert and Jon Stewart killed time/entertained the nation (delete as appropriate) by brawling.
Jon Stewart uses the exact same words as I did when I read Mitt Romney’s dropping-out speech. (Spoiler: “FUCK YOU!”)
For our third wedding anniversary, I treated meself and the missus to tickets to see Jon Stewart do standup. He was splendidly entertaining, though it seemed like he hadn't updated his standup act much over the last few years (jokes about Y2K, the Million Man March and Rodney King!)
