This video of Jon Stewart on CNN's Crossfire is worth a watch. He really gets into the hosts while maintaining his composure, accusing them of being part of the problem with the political situation in the US, and remarking how it's sad that they attack him for not asking hard questions when he does a comedy show. And he's as funny as ever, of course! I used to love his The Daily Show till SBS made it mysteriously disappear from its lineup, although it is one of the most popular comedy shows in the US.

While you're at it, you may as well read Stewart's commencement address. In particular, I love this para:

When I left William and Mary I was shell-shocked. Because when you’re in college it’s very clear what you have to do to succeed. And I imagine here everybody knows exactly the number of credits they needed to graduate, where they had to buckle down, which introductory psychology class would pad out the schedule. You knew what you had to do to get to this college and to graduate from it. But the unfortunate, yet truly exciting thing about your life, is that there is no core curriculum. The entire place is an elective. The paths are infinite and the results uncertain. And it can be maddening to those that go here, especially here, because your strength has always been achievement. So if there’s any real advice I can give you it’s this. Love what you do. Get good at it. Competence is a rare commodity in this day and age. And let the chips fall where they may.
