The Greatest Episode of Crossfire Ever

In the most impressive and surprising episode ever of CNN's "debate" show Crossfire, Jon Stewart, host of Comedy Central's the Daily Show, completely destroyed the mainstream media for its apparent embrace of infotainment rather than its lost role of providing actual news. With Jon Stewart given the opportunity to promote his new book and show in front of a demographic he rarely sees, the celebrated host instead decided to bash the political pundits Tucker Carlson and Paul Begala as being "partisan hacks". He continually refused segways into more comedic topics in hopes of actually forcing the two hosts into a debate on the merits of media and journalism. Stewart ended the show by calling Carlson a "dick" before sarcastically remarking "That went great" when the credits began to role.
The hosts were quite uncomfortable with Stewart's repeated references to their missed opportunities and lack of debate that actually hurt the American people. It was obvious that they expected Stewart to be a funny man like on his late night show, but were dumbfounded by Stewart's opinion and resolve to force CNN to a higher standard than his own show.

Bravo, Bravo.
