It's worth the download.

*Links blatently stolen from SA thread. Not responsible if one -> all of them do not work; I tried and that's what counts. Drysart fucked around with this message on 10-20-2004 at 10:13 PM.
edit: By the way, this is very much worth watching. Zair fucked around with this message on 10-15-2004 at 11:26 PM.
That being said, the show was well worth watching and I recommend downloading it or at least reading the transcript.

We were all impressed when Mr. Crabs wrote:
I thought it was completely hilarious. I have one question though. Did anyone else think that Jon Stewart was a complete dick?
Well, his purpose seemed to be to explain to the hosts that they are contributing to the rot of civil political discourse in America. It is hard to put that nicely...

In essence, I agree with Suddar on this issue. Although I am in support of what Jon Stewart was explaining, he said it in a very insulting way. Essentially, what Jon did was go on someone else's show and tell them, in no uncertain terms, that what they are doing is morally wrong and he would hear no argument to the contrary. If he had said it in a more level-headed way, I think his point would have come across better and would not have been lost among the insults.

When the babel fish was in place, it was apparent Mr. Crabs said:

But his point was that they are hacks. No need to sugarcoat it.
Also, unfortunately, if he had put it more nicely, and not so blunt, his point would have been ignored and forgotten all the sooner.

quote:What he said here was most certainly blunt, but it was in no way an assholeish thing to say. He was there to make a point.. One that Carlson certainly didn't like, nor expected.
STEWART: And I wanted to -- I felt that that wasn't fair and I should come here and tell you that I don't -- it's not so much that it's bad, as it's hurting America.(LAUGHTER)
CARLSON: But in its defense...
(CROSSTALK)
STEWART: So I wanted to come here today and say...
(CROSSTALK)
STEWART: Here's just what I wanted to tell you guys.
CARLSON: Yes.
STEWART: Stop.
(LAUGHTER)
STEWART: Stop, stop, stop, stop hurting America.
BEGALA: OK. Now
(CROSSTALK)
STEWART: And come work for us, because we, as the people...
CARLSON: How do you pay?
STEWART: The people -- not well.
(LAUGHTER)
BEGALA: Better than CNN, I'm sure.
STEWART: But you can sleep at night.
(LAUGHTER)
STEWART: See, the thing is, we need your help. Right now, you're helping the politicians and the corporations. And we're left out there to mow our lawns.
BEGALA: By beating up on them? You just said we're too rough on them when they make mistakes.
STEWART: No, no, no, you're not too rough on them. You're part of their strategies. You are partisan, what do you call it, hacks.
quote:Which Carlson attempted to do directly after Jon began his statements (above). Of course, it was the most ridiculous thing to attack The Daily Show about it's "not being serious". Neither Carlson or Begala had control over that conversation, and it showed.
But Drysart doesn't really care for music, do you?
If he hadn't been an ass about it, they would have walked all over him. Just like Tucker Carlson was trying to do by turning it into an argument over how The Daily Show is soft.

Hilarious. 
edit: By the end of the show, he looked like he wanted to leap across the table and strangle them both. Lechium fucked around with this message on 10-16-2004 at 01:37 AM.

"The lead in to our show is puppets making prank phone calls!"
ROFL
Yeah, just because you have a show that isn't "serious" doesn't mean you can't be good in terms of politickin'.

And I was all like 'Oh yeah?' and Timpofee was all like:
ok the links arent working for me.. anyone have a new one?
The AVI is a larger file, but it's probably a better bet because it's so well seeded.
I think John Stewart did a great job of not murdering anyone. You could tell neither of the guys were expecting that because they were doing their best to keep John from speaking.

Talonus was listening to Cher while typing:
How does EC cause a mirror to get removed on SA? There's no possible way that something on EC could drain enough bandwith to be comparable to the drain from the SA post. Meh.
Uh, probably because the guy didn't post the mirror for EC, but for SA. It was leeched.

True, but I've seen the WSU link elsewhere as well and EC was singled out? Hell, I think I saw that link on Fark first. Can't remember though. Meh.

I know that. In reality, I think it's just a way for Drysart to save face for EC.

Elvish Crack Piper thought about the meaning of life:
Wait. What?
On the SA thread that these links came from it was asked not to abuse the bandwidth. Then there was a not blaming EverCrest specifically for killing the guys bandwidth.
quote:

Because one of the links he copied from the SA thread was posted on SA with the explicit instructions that the link was for SA readers only and not to spread it around. The owner of the site emailed me (a couple days ago actually, but I don't check email that often), so I rectified the situation.
Taking a link from another forum that was put up with a note asking for the link not to be spread around is bad form.
