Fox News is still harping on his "secret meetings" with Obama and Stewart reached his boiling point
Jon Stewart had one final message for Fox News on Monday nights The Daily Show: Adios motherf*ckers!
With still three shows (including the hour-long finale) remaining, Stewart couldnt help himself from issuing a premature goodbye to the conservative news network while the display behind him became engulfed in flames.
Theres a good reason Stewart is all fired up: More than a week after news broke that hed met up with the president for a secret meeting, Fox News analyst Howard Kurtz is still harping on the matter.
Stewart was ready to fire back (sorry): Your hypocrisy isnt a bug in the Fox model; its the feature, he said. Your job is to discredit any source of criticism that might hurt the conservative brand by angrily holding them to standards you yourselves jettison in your news networks mission statement.
