Actually, I'm one of the one's influenced. They may air it in a humorous manner, which is their job but it doesn't make the information any less credible than so-called serious news reported by Dan Rather or Bill O'Reilly.
actually what john stewart and other comedians do is take a news story and spin it for comedy purposes. not all of johns stories are fact in the end- nor do i expect them to be. yes it is awsome to see people take stories and poke em but most people - im sure know the difference. for people to take john stewarts stories or any comedians story and compare it seriously to CNN or any other credible station(and im using that loosely-fox) and actually try to throw it in there face is extremelly laughable. yes comedians have impact- usually with a demographic between 18-35 but as far as world news and politics, they are not in the same league- so one shouldnt compare them as such. plus i really just hate those pricks on crossfire ahahahahahahahahah!!!!! well theres like 2 cents worth
