Good article in The Independent in August.
Totally plagiarised by The Observer last Sunday too

you can see all the full episode on the Daily Show website though. (just in case you weren't aware of that)

btw. watching some of the recent DS episodes it seemed to me that it would be agood idea to just run some of those montages they do about McCain and Palin as Democrat Party tv ads. I particularly enjoyed the McCain and Bush acceptance speeches edited together to show the word for word similarities

No! I can't!

I get this message (which is really funny, btw )

Dear Great Britain

We're terribly sorry, but full episodes of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart are not available.

But please don't send any Red Coats in retaliation at this time, as you CAN get your headlines at Channel 4

I managed to get around that by typing a few extra things in the URL.... it worked, but that was a fortnight ago, and I've completely forgotten how I did it now!

Will have a play around when I get a moment and post it here...

Anyone catch Tony Blair on the show?

His episode currently on the homepage...

(Doin' his Hugh Grant routine for the yanks. Umm, Tony, you're like 14 years too late.... )

Fair play to Stewart - incisive questioning, amusing but not over-the-top... polite but not sycophantic. Our country's interviewers and TV hosts could learn a lot from him.
