He did during his show. GTS used to load the board down with those clips.

It was a 3:1 ratio of anti-GOP stuff to anti-Democrat stuff. Why his fanboys constantly trot out this excuse of "well he did it to the Democrats too", I'll never know.

To the left, he was fair and balanced news media.

Not true.

You are right. I painted with too broad a brush.

Should have said...To MANY on the left....

Thanks...but that may even be a stretch. Sorry, but it's basically just a stale meme from the right.

Sorry, not making a meme...just telling what I witness. And to be fair, the right does similar as well.

The last time some lefty tried to pawn off a "stale meme from the right" type of excuse, we ended up seeing the blue dress with the presidential stains all over it.

Because he did. Why does it have to be balanced...he's a comedian, not a Fox news reporter. BOOM!

No argument there Tom.. .but people were using his _Comedy_ show as a "news source."

Remember the poll that basically said "Jon Stewart was more trusted than..." and they listed off a bunch of mainstream news media anchors? (I remember Brian Williams and Sean Hannity were on the list).

He is trusted because he exposes hypocrisy and does so in an entertaining comedic. Unfortunatly, he just exposes right wing hypocrisy. He would do the nation a service if he was bipartisan in his exposures.

Really lowest common denominator stuff that people think is oh so cute and clever. Sophomoric humor, fun unless you actually reason at that level.

Red loving a leftist lover like Stewart. Just shocking.

We know you do.

He does. He just didnt do it in this particular instance.

Its pretty spot on though isnt it?

All of the things the republicans supposedly hated about Obama are all manifested inTrump.

I disagree. There is a huge difference in your only professional experience being a community organizer v trumps business experience and making deals and connections with major world players

And all of the things Democrats supposedly hate about Republicans have manifested in Clixon.

Saw that Hannity couldn't rebutt anything so he basically just called Stewart a kiss ass. It's all about team.

Like what?

Can't wait to hear jon Stewart nail the dnc for their dishonesty and hypocrisy with the Sanders campaign

Skip ahead to about 3:50.

I like Stewart..but..that was not one of his best efforts.

I also found it funny that Cons like to call Obama divisive but support Trump.

He got sick of how partisan American politics had become.

Yeah, well he's a big part of that.

Stewart was about as balanced as Fox News, the only difference (besides leaning the opposite way) is that he only claimed to be a comedian, he didn't claim to be fair and balanced.
