I guess I didn't find it too amusing because I fear the book the way I fear the show. People actually watch the Daily Show for their news. It's not a humorous supplement to the evening news or the paper to some people, it's all they watch. Many of these people don't realize that it's not the actual news. I guess I'm just worried people will further misinform themselves when they buy this book and read it without balancing it with actual information.
For the people who know it's all just a joke and get real news from elsewhere - go for it.
