If I were Jon Stewart, I'd stop obsessing with CNN and start worrying about the younger, funnier @iamjohnoliver getting his job....

(70,683 posts)Let's go back in the WayBack Machine. I was a fan of the Daily Show before there was Jon. And I dislike KILBORNG now. However, when Jon took it over, I was all his. I remember how Arsinio in the '90s started his show, kissing ass. So, Jon, went on the air after KILBORN or whatever his name is, and Jon begged us audience to give him a chance. Fine. I did. For MANY years.
Then he torpedoed CNN's "Crossifre" (back then) and I (mystified) went, like, all, HUH?!1
But I stuck to Jon. Then years later, Glenn BecKKK held some kind of FAKE rally on the national mall, and then, Jon did one, TOO!1 As Bill MAHER said at the time, if you're going to have an event you need to MAKE IT ABOUT SOMETHING. All Jon did was to have the Mythbusters/some kind of HippyDippy event. Everybody was majorly DISAPPOINTED, both on the BecKKK side and on OUR side.
O.K., I'm through with this post. Jon STEWART is a dead/Mythbusters entity for me. Bye, all.
