I have to sort of not comment on this since I work for one of the shows constantly being mentioned. All I can add is that Mr. Stewart is a very good boss.

We view ourselves as comedy first, news and entertainment second. A good laugh will trump a political bias every single day of the week, and you can take that to the bank. The day the Daily Show is seen as the sole source of "real" news is the day we've lost a very important part of what this country so prides itself: a free press. I will grant you that it can be bleak out there, but there is still good reporting if you can dig through all the bull and grand-standing.

Take care all.
