Jon Stewart takes a dig at "Time"

Jon Stewart's Time Line

Jon Stewart wowed 'em at the Time shindig celebrating the mag's 100 most influential people Tuesday night in Manhattan.

Chosen as the entertainer for the evening, the acerbic wit charmed the crowd -- which included Nicole Kidman, Sean Penn, Martha Stewart, Barbara Walters, Jerry Bruckheimer, Tom Wolfe and Melissa Etheridge -- by pointing out this small detail: "To be named as one of the Time 100, it must have made us all feel pretty good, pretty proud of ourselves, and then to see Time magazine the very next week put Ann Coulter on the cover, um, it kind of knocked us back down to Earth a little bit, didn't it?"

1. That was great!

Jon Stewart is a real jewel!

2. It is a shame that the most eloquent advocate we have

is a comedian. Jon endeared himself to me when he chewed Begala and Carlsons asses. btw, Tucker IS a dick!

5. There's a great editorial cartoon

in today's AJC from Mike Lucovitch featuring Satan on the cover of TIME...with Coulter's long, skanky legs. And how TIME has discovered Satan's lovable side.

9. I can't get enough of that guy

2 hours of the Daily Show per week just isn't enough. Throughout the past 5 years, his humor has helped me from going crazy. It's so easy (as all DUers know) to get to the point of complete rage so to be able to sit back for 30 minutes and laugh at the absurdity of it all is very necessary.

10. Stewart would have been a better cover

I'm sure he thinks so.

11. Count Chocula would have made a better cover....

13. LOL

Perfect. Sometimes I feel like he's the only person left in the media who still says anything honest anymore.
