Jon Stewart on Crossfire
Posted on October 16, 2004
I didn't think my opinion of Jon Stewart could get any better, but it just did. Jon Stewart was on CNN's Crossfire today and really took out the trash, accusing both Carlson and Begala of "partisan hackery", and called the bow-tied Carlson a dick.
STEWART: You know, the interesting thing I have is, you have a responsibility to the public discourse, and you fail miserably.
CARLSON: You need to get a job at a journalism school, I think.
STEWART: You need to go to one.
The thing that I want to say is, when you have people on for just knee-jerk, reactionary talk...
CARLSON: Wait. I thought you were going to be funny. Come on. Be funny.
STEWART: No. No. I'm not going to be your monkey.
