DC, DC, I was kidding!!
I know sarcasm is hard in 2-d we need a new smiley or icon for it.
But in all seriousness, I actually find the Daily Show to be very well written and loved, absolutely loved their coverage of the DNC and RNC. Did you get a chance to catch it? Though the Daily Show takes shots at both sides, I do think it leans a bit left (that is a fair assessment I think). Still, good stuff as long as you remember it's just a comedy show
As for Rush et al, I do not listen or watch so I couldn't really tell you. But from my limited interaction, I find it quite off-putting and at the very least, unintelligible even when I downloaded the transcript to follow along. It's mostly shouting and cutting people off. There is no discussion. I can't even tell if it's English. I prefer to listen to the NPR interviews and commentaries. Very well-balanced. The BBC too when I get a chance.
