The Daily Show isn't a real news show. It's comedy. Entertainment. Ha ha. Making funnies. I know, though, that I'm going to get a flood of "Aren't ALL news casts geared for entertainment? What is a legit news cast? How do you define a credible anchor? Is he not credible just because he's on Comedy Central?" I like the Daily Show just as much as the next person. And I'm sure that O'Reilly is a dick to everyone, anyway. So in true apathetic angst, does it really matter, and who cares. Hi. The Daily Show isn’t a real news show. It’s comedy. Entertainment.

However, I wanted to point out that most mainstram media is making a big deal out of Comedy Central's survey regarding the education/income levels of its viewers (v. O'Reilly's), claiming Comedy Central can't take a joke. But O'Reilly really was being a total douche to Jon Stewart, so I think Comedy Central was right in standing by their man.
