Citing Jon Stewart as a source of credibility is sign of a rather
slender contact on reality.
The National Lampoon is satire, as is Jon Stewart. Satire (look it up)
is an extremely powerful form of topical commentary. But you need two
things:
1. a sufficiently developed intellect
and
B. a sense of humor
Satire is not reportage of fact.
Credibility is not a function of effective satire. It's a
function of accuracy of reported fact.
