Stewart Challenges Kristol on O’Hanlon and Pollack
Last night’s The Daily Show with Jon Stewart featured a heart felt send off for top political adviser at the White House, Karl Rove, and an interesting interview with neoconservative William Kristol, editor of The Weekly Standard.
Steve Benen commented at newly redesigned The Carpetbagger Report (with transcript):
Putting aside, for a moment, Kristol’s penchant for yet another war, this simple exchange was what was missing from all of the major media coverage when O’Hanlon and Pollack were all over every network. Jon Stewart — who, you know, heads a fake news show — managed to challenge a bogus assertion and convey useful information to his audience.
Now, was that so hard?
For the media in this day and age — yes, unfortunately.
