Is this supposed to be GOOD movies…or movies that were a huge part of culture? Because if its the latter then Titanic and Blazing Saddles absolutely belong on the list. As would a bunch of other shitty movies like Austin Powers and Breakfast at Tiffany’s.

So…….. this will set a record for number of comments.

Is that the order you are doing them in as well???? I ask because i have actually seen the first 4 but none of the others. Anxiously awaiting butterfly effect.

The thing that is always kinda forgotten is that the news media are people. Individual people. While it sounds nice to say that the media should all be principled and expose injustice, individual journalists have a tough time doing this. Media people are just like all of us looking to get ahead in their jobs. You dont do that by pissing off billionaires. You create job security by toeing the company line and the only “investigative” pieces you do are exposing a handyman service that screwed over a little old lady or whatever.
Jon Stewart needs to keep doing things like this and needs to keep the “silly comedy show” shroud over himself. He is insulated by this and can call out whoever he wants. Unfortunately most journalists dont have the freedom he has to do this without fear of losing their jobs.

Go watch Idiocracy again. It is at the very least a great idea for a movie and at the best lighthearted and funny throughout. It is nowhere near TWMOAT.

Did you even watch the videos??? Jon said numerous times that it was not directed specifically at Cramer but at CNBC and news media in general. People want these “feuds” to be so mano-a-mano. It was a much broader point Stewart was making and Cramer was the one to take offense so he became the other mano.
I thought Stewart did a great job in this interview. And in reality everyone agrees with what he is saying (re: 2 markets and media looking the other way) but someone who is taken more seriously needs to make these points. Like maybe someone from CNBC. (which was basically the point Stewart was making in the first place)

Doesnt this have to be a cover story or something???? I mean a bar doesnt really have layoffs does it? And if they werent making any money and really had to reduce some staffing wouldnt they start with guys that no one has ever heard of and not the face of the bar? Shouldnt he be the last person let go? Can i end every sentence in this comment with a ?…..

Its a statement quality that is prominent in his humor…..Like how Dave Chappelle is a funny black man and Dane Cook is an unfunny retarded man.

Once again….I dont understand why they are leaving out the most important part. TDS didnt blindly attack Cramer. It was originally a piece to make Santelli look stupid because he was going to be on the show. Cramer happens to have the top financial show on CNBC so many of his clips were used to prove the point about Santelli. Cramer then made it about him and Jon Stewart with his counter-argument. Yet they keep acting like TDS attacked him out of nowhere.
Also the hypocrisy of the last few statements about the Dems needing to “relax” after they just spent 11 minutes ranting about this was just beautiful.
