TV Buzz Jon unveils his new Glenn Beck impression, complete with conspiracy theories and almost crying. Gotcha Media
Politics Buzz Jon Stewart interviewed Blago last night and it was awkward, but not, like, Jim Cramer awkward. Quick summary: Blago thinks he's innocent.

Desperate for ratings, CNN is trying to bring the slang, dawg! And Jon Stewart is here to drop da bomb on them for using the same term to discuss important news that they use in Jersey to call someone mom's a whore. Just sayin.

Why is life expectancy higher in Canada? Simple, the US has 10 times as many people. Right?
TV Buzz They tried their best to really make this joke work, but in the end they just had let it go.
I'm not sure whether this is a good thing, or a bad thing.

Find out what Jon Stewart has to say about the Iraqi elections over at The Huffington Post.
Politics Buzz Dan Rather appeared on the show in a “vintage” news clip to help poke fun at the heartbreakingly stupid Dijongate “incident.” Recurring correspondent from the past? Note to Daily Show producers: let's make this happen.

Tech Buzz The Twittersphere is excited today that Jon Stewart did a whole segment on trying to make sense of Twitter last night. It's definitely funny, but it doesn't really seem like the coming out party everyone's saying it is. Like, when John McCain is happily tweeting from his Blackberry, it seems like the service has got to be pretty mainstream already.

Old man Stewart doesn't understand the point of Twitter. Samantha Bee explains that it's extremely popular because of how it's AWESOME.

Always worth watching. In this round of the epic Stewart vs. O'Reilly battle: paparazzi, the right to privacy, and people Bill O'Reilly does not like (at last count, nearly everyone, except Miley Cyrus for some reason).

Jon Stewart takes a look at how Fox News is coping with the Obama presidency. Basically: not well. They are not even sure Obama is really the president. Patriots!

Did you think they would just GIVE UP? Well, they haven't. They are not even sure Barack Obama is really the president. Patriots!
TV Buzz The media is all revved up to see how The Daily Show (and political comedy in general) will thrive in the era of Obama, a president who, unlike Bush, is shaping up to not be an a-hole and single-handedly destroy the country. If all were right in the world, Dubya would get his own segment on The Daily Show, letting us see how funny the guy can be when not, you know, controlling the fate of the free world.
TV Buzz In the age of Obama, Comedy Central is [finally] trying to capture an African-American audience in this sketch show disguised as a newsmagzine set to air before The Daily Show and The Colbert Report (not bad). Rumor has it that Tyler Perry had to be “forcibly removed” from the set when he learned that his name wasn’t attached to the project. Thank goodness too, because we’ll take Grier’s Maya Angelou over towering nightmare Madea any day. (Also, I made up that rumor.)
Yes, it’s what The Daily Show is known best for: recognizing hypocritical blowhards in politics. But this clip, in which Jon Stewart so effortlessly lambasts right-wing luminaries Karl Rove and Bill O’Reilly as they bemoan the alleged sexism being faced by Sarah Palin, is a must-see. And to think: it’s very likely the interns sifting through endless footage at The Daily Show who are quietly rocking the political stratosphere. Go get ‘em, kids.
A billboard for The Daily Show outside the Minneapolis-St. Paul Airport welcoming the arrival of the delegates attending next week’s Republican National Convention. Ha!
Politics Buzz The Chief Foreign Correspondent for CBS News who has lived in Baghdad since the beginning of the Iraq War criticizes the media’s lack of coverage on the Daily Show. Oh, and by the way, she’s kind of stunning, and has a South African accent. Meet my new girlcrush, everyone!
Politics Buzz Coined by Jon Stewart, “Baracknophobia” is the media's willingness to peddle insane rumors about Barack Obama — and their tendency to blame the rumor-mongering on internet sites. Merriam-Webster, take note: will Baracknophobia be this year's truthiness?
