I love Stewart and what he's been doing for the last 10+ years but I'm worried this rally thing puts him in the same position as the very people he's been mocking for so long. IMHO, much of his power stems from the fact that he's on the outside looking in.
- dkokelley 16y agoYou're right. It's a tricky thing, to (fake) report on a story without becoming a part of the story.
- samtp 16y agoNot if him and Colbert keep the satire in the rally
- BlazingFrog 16y agoI disagree. The one thing that keeps his discourse credible is that he does not have an agenda. The minute he asks tens of thousands of people to show up at a rally, then stands in from of them to ask them to "restore sanity", he has an agenda.
- smhinsey 16y agoNothing has been said about the content of it yet, so it's a little early to speculate, but I suspect it's basically going to be some sort of music/comedy thing with them MCing. In other words, more of an anti-rally than a counter-rally.
