Re: 2016 Presidential Race
It's not people desperate to drum up anything. It's the Dem party tiring of having to deal with issues like these. Whitewater, the Rose Law Firm records, avoiding sniper fire, I was named after Sir Edmund Hilary....... Bill is the liked Clinton. Hilary, not so much. And it seems pretty clear that the media is tired of carrying water for their foibles, especially since it was the NYT that broke this email story big.

Re: 2016 Presidential Race
I thought that at one point, but while funny he's just a hypocrite too. I don't remember exactly what it was ( I could maybe look if I find the time) but he was calling out Hannity for saying Obama lied, and pointed out Hannity left out information, when that is EXACTLY what Stewart did to say Hannity lied.
I remember thinking, damn Hannity you lying mofo, then I researched and found out it was Stewart who was lying (in this case).
I hate to be so general, but I just don't recall what it was exactly.

Re: 2016 Presidential Race
As expected, her favorability rating takes a small hit ...

Again, it will be how she handles this, not the scandal itself, that will dictate her viability down the road.

Re: 2016 Presidential Race
not saying hes without fault, so one instance isnt going to change much for me. Hes right far more often than wrong from what ive found.
in this instance i was referrring to his show always using older clips showing them saying one thing and then saying the exact opposite in another. Almost every show has some form of that, which is why I said its the one thing we should learn from it.-JAB

Re: 2016 Presidential Race
well besides your example being completely generic to the point I have no idea what it is let alone if its true... no. hes a comedian, theyre politicians. i like to hold my politicians to a little higher standard of honesty than my comedians.
besides that one time means hes not perfect, repeated offenses ring more true to me. If you watched more than 20 shows youd probably see that when he has been proven wrong hes apologized or corrected it in the past.-JAB

Re: 2016 Presidential Race
i described a double standard if you see comedians and politicians on the same level. I have no idea why youd put them on the same level, but thats your choice. if you want to put him on the same level as a news reporter id sooner see it, but ill gladly take the daily show over anything on fox news as far as truth goes, so if im comparing him to those peers, hes still better than most.

Re: 2016 Presidential Race
The fact folks choose a comedy outlet over any one network is the larger problem.
If you want the truth, reading all kinds of outlets with all kinds of biases are needed. I am just as leery as the devout FNC viewer as I am the MSNBC viewer, Daily Show viewer, etc.
I will defend Fox on one show though. Special Report is by far the most centric of all the shows out there IMO. The first 45 minutes is straight reporting and their 15 minute roundtable at the end always has one conservative, one liberal and a centrist.
