When I was in college back in the 1990s, I like so many other students began getting my political commentary Monday through Thursday nights on Comedy Central with The Daily Show with John Stewart. While the show was not an official news show and Stewart, who had graduated from the same university a decade before, never claimed to be a legitimate news anchor, his brand of humor and take on politics was appealing. In fact, for the 2004 presidential election, male viewers between 18-34 got their news more from The Daily Show than any other news program. Considering this was a comedy show that is both funny and sad.
