Jon Stewart Revels In Inane Election Coverage (VIDEO)
Wednesday, November 4th, 2009
The 2009 elections that have been dominating cable news coverage of late consisted of two governor races and two congressional seats. Of course, every race is important and deserves coverage but the hyperbole which reporters, anchors and pundits have employed claiming these races are referendums on the president and his policies, and predictors of the 2008, 2010 and 2012 elections caused Jon Stewart to take exception. He focused specifically on New York’s 23rd District race in which Republican nominee Dede Scozzafava was undermined by her own party mostly because she supports gay marriage, abortion rights and has a close relationships with leading labor officials.

TV’s Fuzzy Future: Traditional Tube Is Being Squeezed Out Of The Picture
Friday, May 15th, 2009
Danny Ledonne rarely misses “The Daily Show.” He’s a frequent viewer of its cable TV cousin, “The Colbert Report,” too. And for additional political satire and commentary, he often checks out HBO’s “Real Time With Bill Maher.” The thing is, Ledonne doesn’t own a television. He hasn’t had one since he was in college more than eight years ago.
