Fear, Obedience, and Republicans

By bcohen on April 9, 2009.

A commentary, I think, on the public understanding of basic human decency. Or lack thereof.

Elizabeth Warren on the Daily Show I think she was about to curse... ok, so this was some time ago, I'm behind question is, why don't prime time news shows do interviews like this? The Daily Show With Jon Stewart M - Th 11p / 10c Elizabeth Warren Pt. 1 thedailyshow.com Daily Show…

John Stewart has done nothing but slam anything conservative and promote liberalism. I used to watch, then when Obama came in, instead of attacking the gaffs that Obama did as he did with bush, he still attacks conservatives. I don't watch stewart any more.

That's funny - problem - why shold Stewart bash Obama? Limbaugh, Bachman, Back and Hannity are so ridiculous that it would be idiotic NOT to pick on them. Stewart is however a liberal - so why should pick on someone with the same ideas? Because of balance of media? That's a stupid assumption - Comedy Central is not a news network and so as long as Stewart brings viewers he should pick on however brings the most laughs - which is in this case the weirdos on the right end. Has anyone seen Glenn Back's 9-12 project? This totally deserves to be ridiculed.
