Jon Stewart Slams Media for Blacking Out Iraq War Lies Report

The Daily Show reports on the media’s failure to report on the Senate report that proves the Bush administration knowingly lied to us about the reasons for war. Surely the “Big Three” have more important things to cover.

Stewart: “Let’s go back to the Big Three, that’s where real Americans get their news. Charlie Gibson, cover it!”

Gibson: “Something that doesnt happen every day, and certainly doesn’t happen twice..a well-know French daredevil named ‘Spiderman’…”

Stewart: “Yes, he was climbing the New York Times building. Perhaps looking to read the story about the administration leading us into a war that you didn't cover at all! At all!


For a “fake news” anchor, Jon Stewart sure does a better job reporting actual news than the entire mainstream media combined. I’m sure Stewart wouldn’t take offense when I say that that’s pretty sad.

2. The Sunday talk shows should have been all over it.
I don't think it was mentioned on any of them. Mostly just election stuff.

4. No, no...it's all the Dems fault for not producing the report or having a press conference
to discuss the report.

Oops....yes, they did.

This is what the corpmedia does. They didn't report CIA analysts disagreeing with Iraq intel in 2002. They didn't report Kerry's attack on the swifts in 2004. They didn't report on the contents of the Downing Street Memos. And they aren't reporting on the Senate report on WH's cooked intel for Iraq.

But, damn they'll blame and smear a Dem at the drop of a pronoun or a heated sermon.
