    Missed the extended coverage of the naked dude. That was priceless, the reporter seemed genuinely disappointed he didn’t get to see him first hand.

    It seems the new “non-partisan strategy” of CNN is to be stupider than MSNBC and Fox News combined. Either that or Viacom bought CNN and Stewart is secretly in charge. I mean, the DS doesn’t even need to edit the footage for it to be laughable.

    Greetings:

    Too bad Mr. Stewart couldn’t have put up some info about where the reporters got their schooling or training.
