He is much funnier when he sticks to comedy and leaves the political statements to serious people.

[/ QUOTE ]Like who? Tucker Carlson? Bill O'Reilly? Sean Hannity? None of them are to be taken any more seriously. It's [censored] television.

When O'Reilly had his run-in with the Daily Show he made an ass out of himself, and ended up drawing attention to how much better educated the Daily Show crowd is than his own crowd (according to research which he would not dispute).

So tell me how Bill O'Reilly's political statements are more serious than Jon Stewart's. Is it because O'Reilly's channel covers more car chases and hurricanes?

Obviously Stewart's loyal audience loves it when he gets serious. I for one have his appearance on Crossfire on my computer still, and it was by far the most popular Crossfire segment in internet history.
