Nice of Stewart to once again show the hypocrisy of some of baby boomers.

yea I was surprised they didnt use Hodgman on talking about it but I still love that segment.

 

[Prison Mike]

I missed it last night. I'll have to see it online.

The Daily Show Thread?

IMMEDIATELY RENAME THIS THE BEST SHOW EVER THREAD

Jon Stewart has done an amazingthing with a basic cable fake news show. In ten years he has turned it into the funniest show on television that, IMO, is a better source for news than almost all of cable news combined.

If you want to stay informed read the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, Economist, Time, etc.

If you want infotainment, TDS is far smarter and full of critical thought than anything on CNN, MSNBC or the Right Wing Propaganda Network (Fox).

Amazing show.

Any time Samantha Bee is on, it's a good show.

Dayum. Kevin Pereira of G4's Attack of the Show just took a shot at Jon's criticism of Apple during their opening segment last night, saying he ought to get his facts right.

Nerd fight? Geek fight? No...Nerd, feud?????

What facts did he get wrong? & LOL that little mouth breather is really going to try & take on Jon Stewart...really?

Basically, Kevin took the stance that Gizmodo broke the law in this case and Apple had a right to break down their door and take Jason Chan's stuff and whatnot and said that Stewart was wrong for calling Apple the bullies in this situation.

 

[Kane52630]

whats funny is that when they reviewed the HTC phone they claimed that they are not apple fanboys

 

[Ghostvirus]

Seriously? So it is now ok to treat a simple theft if you are an f-ing terrorist. More often than not you kick in the door to have an upper hand of surprise incase the meth head have some heat. I seriously doubt that dude was packing heat.

Man, I really hope Stewart sees fit to waste air time ripping this dude apart.

I wonder if this *****, & those defending this *****e understand the implications of a company having the power to have someones door kicked in for a low grade law break.

I think Orwell needs to be a required read in schools. Some people are starting to forget.

"Hey I gotta tell you its a beautiful country, runs like a dream. We've kept it totally tuned for 8 years, its cherry. You're not going to have a problem at all. Oh you'll take it? Its your piece of **** now!"

His first bit last night was amazing. I really loved him cutting down everyone (aka Fox) who supported Bush through all of his mistakes, then turn around and label any potential mistake of Obama's as "Obama's (Insert Bush Blunder Here)"

 

[Kane52630]

might as well say, "Is This Obama's 2012?" lol

 

[kjwan]

I grab this show when I can here in England, usually via the 'net; one of my favourite shows, constantly good. Witty, insightful, intelligent and so good to see people turned out in Ascots!!

 

[Anita18]

OMG HOW I COULD MISS A DAILY SHOW THREAD????

All I would like to say, is that the gospel choir number telling Fox News to "go [beep] themselves" was the most hilarious thing TDS has done in the past year. OMG I was in tears, it was glorious.

 

[Kane52630]

the last Back In Black segment was amazing

It was insanely great. "I've MET Al Gore, and he's no Hitler. Hitler, had charisma!"

 

[Kane52630]

even though im not a big fan of Olivia Munn, this was a great segment esp. Aasif Mandvi.

I didn't find Olivia Munn funny at all.
