Map Of The Day

Although I dismiss the myth that young people are getting their news predominantly from the Daily Show (one requires prior knowledge of the various news stories in order to get most of the jokes) Stewart is definitely one of the more honest voices out there right now speaking truth to power. His influence amongst the young is why presidential candidates know they have to appear on his show and his ability to intelligently grill those with whom he disagrees is why Republicans try so hard to dismiss and vilify him. I don't see his popularity waining any time soon and in this era of infotainment and watered-down news sources, why should it?
