I respect both Jon Stewart and Rachel Maddow, so I'm not - or + by this, but I did enjoy watching it. Here's my opinion.
Basically there is EVIL (Fox News) whom fuels anger, confusion and fear (and I don't say that in a harsh way, I just mean that they like to stir shit up for ratings)... and GOOD (everyone else), and certain groups (Anderson Cooper, Keith Olbermann, Rachel Maddow, Jon Stewart, Steven Colbert, Conan O'Brien, Jimmy Fallon, CNN, MSNBC, Yahoo News, Google, etc) that try their very best to counter the "EVIL" without being evil themselves. They support the flow of ALL information, not just information that supports their world view. Like JS says; IF ITS RIGHT ITS RIGHT.
Ironic that Fox News claims to be "fair and balanced". The only thing they are being "fair" or "balanced" to is Republicans, Christians, old people, and/or whites.
The best part about that video was that Jon Steward pointed out that there is a 24/7 network that point out differences between parties, and that's unfair. That creates conflict even where there is no conflict. We should unite, not divide, and I fucking despise any person or organization that creates division among human beings.
Also, I would fuck Rachel Maddow. Not in a mean way. I would make passionate love to her.
