It wasn’t Stewart who was wearing a bow tie

If you’re trying to follow the political “debates” going on now in America, you might be interested in seeing the clip of Comedy Central’s “Daily Show” host Jon Stewart, who appeared Friday on the CNN talk show “Crossfire.” Stewart doesn’t so much make his point – that shows such as “Crossfire” are more about theater than an actual airing of issues – as let the two hosts, conservative Tucker Carlson and Paul Begala, make it for him. Rather than ever get Stewart to actually explain what he meant, they – especially Carlson – just tried to get him to crack jokes. “Come on,” Carlson said. “Be funny.” “No,” Stewart replied. “I’m not going to be your monkey .” Of course, that’s not how they see it. “I thought that he looked ridiculous,” Carlson said Monday, “and I think the tape makes that clear.”
