Jon Stewart in talks with conservative cable news station

[meisje]

I heard this last week from a confidential source, but until last night I thought it was a joke. Was he just warming up for his Fox debut?

1. I'm going into mourning if this is true ...

2. It's Jon and i'll believe when i see it.

9. I feel like I see his name misspelled more often than spelled right here.

eom

3. Puh. Leeze.

[MnFats]

4. He COULD command a huge salary right now...

...with the success of his book and all. the book is riotously funny, by the way.

but in one interview or another, maybe Franken, maybe Teri Gross, he indicated slyly that his is a liberal heart.
i just don't think any amount of money would lead him to cross over to the snake pit that is FOX.
but maybe I have misunderestimated the power of the dark side of The Force.

8. Heck, just in the lead up to and let down from the election...

you can tell where Jons heart lies. People have gone insane since last night for some reason. I guess it happens every time Jon pokes fun at Democrats too. People just dont see the fine line that Jon's trying to walk I guess. If you pay attention, you see that he always lambasts the conservatives on both policy as well as superficial issues, but with liberals he usually only makes fun of the superficial issues, not so much policy.

I'm not calling the original poster a troll or anything, but we should adopt that emoticon as a troll warning for general use. :D

[AlCzervik]

[blondeatlast]

17. He's ready to out himself--as Deep Throat.

I heard that from a "confidential source."

[redqueen]

19. Oh please.

If he got onto one of those stations, it'd be a blessing. He's got some sense. Maybe some would rub off on the listeners..
