1. Sadly, there are more actual facts on "The Daily Show" than you'll find on FOX Noise.

Come to think of it, finding facts on FOX Noise is a "needle in the haystack" problem.

2. Stewart mixes comedy and politics.....

...while Carlson mixes lies and politics. So, why shouldn't people like Stewarts approach more than Carlson's? Everyone likes a comedian, no one likes a liar.

3. The puppet thinks he's a real boy!

Tucker is smarmy little douchebag.

4. I saw her say that. I happend on there just out of curiosity and was

answering her with no coffee yet. What horrid people they are. Jon gives more real news in two minutes than you get from Faux....

5. People should realize there is no "real news."

We live in the dark. :(

6. "It doesn't seem like Robert Gibbs 'gets' the network (FOX)"...

:rofl:

No, the WH just thinks it's a problem that people think FOX is real news.

7. Great comments under the video...and I agree!

8. I think it is a problem that, in comparison to other so called news sources...

it is news.

If a real news program comes on where information is given a higher priority than, propaganda, ideology, and making a buck, people will know what news is.

11. Hey Tucker, gotta problem with people thinking Fox Nooze is real?

:shrug:

STFU, you whiny punk.

[blogslut]

16. While I agree Tucker Carlson is a whiny punk

The Carlson referred to by Media Matters is Gretchen. :)

18. Ha!

That's so funny! It's so hard to tell one bobble-head Carlson from another! :blush:

I actually :rofl: when I read your response. :D

12. The problem is that Tucker thinks he's relevant.

14. It's ironic that the guy who couldn't hold a job at any cable news outlet

thinks he is qualified to decide what is "real news" and what isn't.

Personally I think the Daily Show has considerably more actual news content than anything on Fox News.

15. He is a pariah

He longs to impress FOX but they reject him.

[hootinholler]

17. WHAT?

It's not real news?

Damn, news to me.

19. Poor Tuckie is still pouting that Jon Stewart kicked his ass.

Suck it, asshole.

20. I don't believe Carlson thinks

to even consider the second part of the statement would be silly

21. A question on Million Dollar $$ Drop was "who did people say was the most trusted newscaster.....

in America in 2009?" and the answer was either Brian Williams and Jon Stewart.

They chose poorly w/Brian Williams.

(LOL couldn't help but google it in the hopes that some site picked up on it: http://www.newsfromme.com/archives/2010_12_21.html - under Gummed Drop and after the spoiler alert)

Thought it was very interesting and wondered how many people were polled and what their demos were. If the site is to be believed, the answer (or assumption) is there too.

22. "The problem" is that there's NO ALTERNATIVE for "Real News"

Sometimes, TDS is the ONLY mainstream media source for important news.

23. There's a name for people who kvetch like that...

They're called "Whiney Bawley Butts".
