Jon! Jon! Jon!
All Jon, all the time!
- C-SPAN American Perspective (Oct 23 show)
- 60 Minutes (warning: may cause drowsiness)
Just a quick update. Make sure you watch the C-SPAN bit until the end, where Jon takes questions from mainstream media types. The question about kids "getting their news" from The Daily Show came up and Jon gave the best answer I've heard to that. He pointed out that in writing for the show they assume so much base knowledge that it would be impossible to get the jokes unless you already knew what was going on. People aren't watching The Daily Show for news, they're watching for "the funny."
