Note to self: Do not make Jon Stewart mad because he can and will unleash a world of pain on you. I, like many others, tuned in to the epic smackdown between Jon Stewart and Jim Cramer last night after a week of observing the two TV personalities feud, and it was breathtakingly somber — not to mention intense.
It started with funny yet biting commentary from Stewart on The Daily Show earlier in the week about the role of CNBC in our current financial meltdown and ended last night with a brutal "interview" of the host of Mad Money (my friend Citizen has the clips and more background on the feud).

The Daily Show is celebrating 10 years with Jon Stewart as host this month, which seems amazing to me — I remember watching some of his earliest shows when I was still in high school! Variety has some awesome coverage of Stewart's anniversary, including a list of some of the most important moments in Daily Show history.

As most of you know, I've got my head buried in entertainment news all day and so — I'm not going to lie — sometimes when I turn on Comedy Central at night at watch The Daily Show and The Colbert Report I'm definitely looking to learn about the news of the day from comedians.
I felt a little less guilty about this when I read a recent New York Times profile of Jon Stewart that calls his show "a genuine cultural and political force," and notes that in a study about the most admired journalists in America, Jon Stewart came in fourth place.
I find this kinda funny considering neither Stewart nor Colbert is an actual journalist.

And I'm not even kidding! This announcement is as serious as anything can be in Colbert's world of baby eagles, bridges and Ben & Jerry's: Colbert has thrown his hat into the ring into the race for president — or, at least, the primary election in his home state of South Carolina. He hedged on the announcement early last night on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, but after careful consideration, he decided to make his run official on "a more prestigious show" — his own.
