I don't think Stewart ever claimed to be a reporter, as a mater of fact I have seen him say that people who get their news from shows like his are kind of scary

Now Colbert on the other hand is doing satire of O'Reilly and I find those two shows remarkably similar.

A fake press conference does cut down on the uncomfortable questions tho doesn't it?

If there wasn't a rule #6 I'd say you just broke rule #2...

But then again maybe I just broke rule #2...

It sure does, I said  to many that I would ever see an administration as morally corrupt and dishonest as the Clinton one was...I was wrong.
