Actually, they did a nationwide follow up study: "Researchers asked 1,185 random nationwide respondents what news sources they had consumed in the past week and then asked them questions about events in the U.S. and abroad."
I'd like to see Stewart do a weekly network commentary, somewhere, Andy Rooney's old slot on 60 Minutes should still be available for that sorta thing.
I could care less where, as long as it was available without a subscription, and he could do it from his bathroom in his jammies for all I'd care.

I think he's going to end up doing something like that, just without the grind of doing four shows a week. I can picture him getting a show on HBO or Showtime.
That's a bunch or crap. His interviews with Donald Rumsfeld, Timothy Giethner and Christopher Hitchens were more productive than the stuff you see on any news channel. If you stayed away from the right wing echo chamber, you might be able to see that.
As for the article, the author either doesn't watch the Daily Show or is blatantly being dishonest. Stewart has addressed these criticisms.
Wrong again. You're ignoring the facts. When Stewart says he's a comedian first, he says that because the most important part of his act is to make people laugh. He welcomes criticism and challenges people to take him on. He also acknowledges that he has an ideology.
He explains this clearly here (at around 6:50):
The problem with the right wing media bubble is that they ignore the facts that don't meet their narrative. I guess that's how they end up with a long time liberal like Donald Trump as a front runner.
Yep, read the study by Bartlett I linked previously. Explains the problem with Fox News and the Tea Party and how they've destroyed intelligent discourse and the GOP.
Look at how much time is spent here just not allowing TP crap to rule the discussion. We haven't had a fruitful debate here in awhile because you have to start from a place of fanatical fantasy with the TPeanut Gallery here. Which is exactly what they want... to confuse everything with assumptive falsehoods so that actual substantive debate cannot be held. If it were, then they'd just be debunked and irrelevant.
