Reading this transcript, Stewart was pretty funny. I probably would've laughed quite a bit, had I seen it.
I think the idea that Stewart needs standards comes from the fact that many really do take the non-joke portions of the show to be legitimate journalism. I've even seen some here claim that it's more accurate and less biased than network news. Which is moronic. Stewart's hilarious, but he's a hack when it comes to actually reporting the news.
