Just watched Bill O'Reilly on The Daily Show, tonight.
Most. Fun. TV. Ever.
And by the way - all you Simpsons fans (especially
ggollerkeri) - you're going to love this. One of the letters O'Reilly responded to on his show a while ago, was from a certain "Jack Mehoffer" (Read that aloud, heh heh). Skeptical? Well - and this is good - Jack Mehoffer is from Springfield, Massachussets. (A
link to the video). Viva Bart Simpson.
Seriously, though - if you can catch a repeat of the tonight's Daily Show, watch it. I love this show - but it was only tonight that I realised just how good John Stewart really is. Part Woody Allen, with his hangdog Jewish melancholy, and part blue-eyed boy, he's disarmingly likeable - but really, that's his biggest strength. I'm guessing people have seen this - but just in case you haven't - it's a
rather famous clip of Stewart on Crossfire - and he really rips into them. Oh, and I should probably mention, Crossfire was cancelled shortly after this episode.
[PS: And of course, in line with my musical leanings of late, an extremely off-center jazz recco -
John Zorn. If my life had a soundtrack, I'd want him to write it. More on him, in a bit.]
