Just Kidding, But Seriously

Stephen is counting down which saddens me. He's at 79 last time I looked. It's depressing to think that one day there will be a bunch of stuff to report but no Report. Sigh.

Perhaps that is why his guest on last Thursday was Jay Carney, someone who is stepping down from his job. Is it to get us used to the idea that we will have to get our news information from a different source in the White House and soon on Comedy Central?

Unless Comedy Central comes up with another news show, that will leave us with only 30 minutes a night (Monday through Thursday, check your local listings) of news from Jon Stewart on The Daily Show. The 24 hour news stations could learn something from Comedy Central. Yes, "Comedy" is in their name and yet they are able to devote some time to breaking news stories. You'd think the big news corporations would see the value of diversification and perhaps have a half hour per night of comedy. Seems only fair to me.

Special message from me to Jay the Intern. "Yo."

Good luck to Josh Earnest.
