If you watch and listen to Jon Stewart's show very much, please note that the show is shown on the COMEDY CENTRAL network. That alone should demonstrate the cowardice of Mr. Stewart in that his forum for his fake news program is the centerpiece of a comedy program. I get the sense that Mr. Stewart is bulletproof from the main stream media criticism. Goodness knows that splicing together sound bites from people he disagrees with, then having his team of comedy writers write witty, snarkey comments is truly the foundation of meaningful discourse. The show is written for the 3rd grade level (on a good day) for an MTV generation of drones and zombies. Thankfully, not all of the MTV generation of drones fall for this fake news and analysis comedy show, so there may be hope after all.
You see, the cowardice of Mr. Stewart is that he stays secluded with the confines of the comedy show and looks down his elitist nose at people who disagree with him. He doesn't come down from his mountaintop because to do so would put him in the same non-teleprompter world as the rest of us. No comedy writers, no help from his yes people.
I will give Mr. Stewart credit in one area though. He has marketed himself much like Sham Wow.
He just soaks up the praise for his deep thoughts and never gets full.
