Daily show watchers have 4 more years of school than "The O'Reilly Factor"

Topic is misleading; the study said that viewers of The Daily Show were "more likely to have completed four years of college than people who watch The O'Reilly Factor", not that they have "four more years of school".

Just clarifying :p.

haha I guess Sprafa is an O'Reilly watcher.
 
You really think grammar questions make you guys any more right ?

And O'reilly isn't aired here, as obvious, because he doesn't have any of the great talent from Mr. Stewart.

That actually raises an interesting question....why is it that Michael Moore and Jon Stewart get major international audiences, but but people like O'Reilly and Michael Wilson don't?

I watch The Daily Show. I'd probably watch O'Reilly if it aired in Canada, just to feed the anger which lives in my guts.

Er. Yeah, anyways, I really was just clarifying :).

You dont watch O'Reilly.. yet you say he doesn't have talent like JOHN STEWERT (lol) How do you get that conclusion?

EDIT: the reason john stewert does is becuase all his show does is joke around and bs about everything..its more of a comedy then an actual news show imo.

What anger ?

Anger for people like O'Reilly, who take advantage of the worst fears and hatred within regular people:

The U.S. should bomb the Afghan infrastructure to rubble—the airport, the power plants, their water facilities, and the roads” if the Afghan government did not extradite Osama bin Laden. O’Reilly continued: “This is a very primitive country. And taking out their ability to exist day to day will not be hard. Remember, the people of any country are ultimately responsible for the government they have. The Germans were responsible for Hitler. The Afghans are responsible for the Taliban. We should not target civilians. But if they don't rise up against this criminal government, they starve, period.

That's just one example of many.

I have tried to watch the "O'Reilly factor" twice in Brazil, where Fox News is unfortunately allowed. I couldn't take it for more than 5 minutes.

That's the point. Jo(no H)n Stewart is a comedy genius. He actually gives his point of view in a way we all gotta love him.
 
Jon Stewart has more influance on this election than O'Reilly could ever wish for. When I watched Jon on the O'Reilly Factor it made me sick at how disrespectful O'Reilly was. Here is an interesting fact:
As if to drive the Pew survey's point home, "The Daily Show" reached a ratings milestone during the two weeks of the Iowa caucus, New Hampshire primary and State of the Union address. For the first time, Stewart's show had more male viewers aged 18 to 34 than any of the network evening news shows.

One newspaper, Newsday, has Stewart listed atop a list of the 20 media players who will most influence the upcoming campaign. Tim Russert, Ted Koppel, Sean Hannity, among others, trailed.

O'Reilly is pretty much an idiot. You can view some neat info about him at:

http://www.oreilly-sucks.com

Other organizations such as Media Matters for America ( http://www.mediamatters.org ) also document his lies on an almost daily basis.

Would you mind posting a link to that? I hadn't heard that before.

But that's extremely sick if he said that. I didn't think even O'Reilly would go that low. :x

Yes, he did say that. I would look for a transcript but I'm at work so I don't have time for it right now. I'm sure if you search around Media Matters you will find something.

Just do a search for the term "rubble", to get to the relevant part. How lovely.
 
John Stewart is an asshole and has no beleifs it seems, as he will insult anyone and anything to get a laugh.

Yes, let's all make stupid claims without any backup or reasoning. Newsflash: Jon Stewert is a political satireist. The job of a political satireist is to make fun of politics. Stewert making fun of Bush is no different than Mad TV or Saturday Night Live making fun of Bush. When Jon Stewert makes fun of someone he usually does it in a fair way since those people usually deserve it by saying something stupid. What is amazing about Jon Stewert is he can make actual issues humorous; maybe that's what scares the republicans so bad?

He doesn't make fun of just political things, he was making fun of the Boy Scouts for no reason, who have done more good than he could ever hope to do.

He mostly makes fun of political stuff. His show is a comedy show, when something is funny he will report on it. What is wrong with that? I think a defenition of that is comedian, I'll have to look it up though :dozey:.

Oh come on now, let's at least be reasonable when we make a claim. Stewert clearly doesn't write all his matterial; almost all comedians don't. However, he does do a lot of his own stuff; there simply isn't enough time to your own stuff all the time considering you are on 4 nights a week.

I know that he is not supposed to be funny, but i find it funny when he doesnt let other people speak, raises his voice, proves people wrong etc.

I am glad you are such an expert of Boy Scout knowledge, how many years were you in?
 
...then there are the people who instead of missing class watching The O'Reilly factor and the Daily Show, go into college and learn :p
 
well its hard to make a joke without offending somebody . Ironically this time its comedy central getting a taste of what they dish out 10 000 times a day. so...meh :thumbs: :frog:

No you don't, I am an atheist(very openly too) and no one has said a damn thing to me. In all those cases it sounded like fanatics who wanted to make a point or somthing.
