That reminds me of John Stewart telling people not to consider the "Daily Show" a real news show.

That reminds me of John Stewart telling people not to consider the "Daily Show" a real news show.
- Retra 10y agoThat is what you say when you're making a distinction between "editorial" content and "news." Jon Stewart was saying "My show is obviously editorial content, not fact-reporting objective journalism." As a way of objecting to other sources who claimed to be providing fact-reporting objective journalism when they were actually providing editorial content. AKA "Fox News" vs "Comedy Central."
- maxlybbert 10y agoThat is true. But Stewart also said "The show that leads into me is puppets making crank phone calls."
