Discussion: Hillary Clinton's 'Daily Show' Interview Did Not Impress Howie Kurtz (VIDEO)

Actually it’s the CBS formerly-named Dave Letterman Show but – you’re absolutely right. Colbert stepping from Comedy Central cable to late night CBS broadcast gives him a national platform and the cons must be gnashing their teeth over it!
Hahahaha!

This is no surprise - but then again I was underwhelmed by Kurtz at CNN and continue to find his opinions of no greater value than any of the clowns at Fox

Why is anything Kurtz says considered news? It is opinion, based on dataless gut feelings of an out of touch, parochial, DC hack.

When did Jon Stewart ever claim to be “fair and balanced”, unlike a certain television news [sic] network that pays Howard Kurtz’s salary and that Kurtz could spend two hours a day lambasting for its lies, if he wasn’t a cheap hack?

The difference between Stewart and these buffoons is that sitting and making little snippy remarks about him is the worst they can do. But on a regular basis Stewart takes their ridiculous, contorted, self-contradictory propaganda and proceeds to flay them alive, disembowel them before they die, and then burn them at the stake. With words, of course. But it’s no contest. It’s like the mean girls in middle school versus Godzilla.

Stewart is just tougher on stupid people.

And how childish is this all? One thing Stewart doesn’t do is whine.

Stewart regularly whips out a flamethrower and burns FUX News to a crisp using the fuel they supply him.

Kurtz is just gassing up the cannisters. And he’s too fucking stupid to know it. Dumbass whiny fuck.

Kurtz is “famous”? Really? Care to do a national survey and see how many people have heard of him?

Meanwhile, NBC is freaking out that their new poll show Hillary TIED WITH RAND PAUL in IOWA!!!

A summer poll (notoriously useless before the media went into 24/7 poll obsession as a substitute for thought), 2+ years before the election, when Hillary is a known quantity (and focus of non-stop recent media attacks) and the GOPers mostly unknown and (for now) going unquestioned and unchallenged? Yeah, that “tie” is great news for John McCain!

You need to do a better job editing-- you forgot the “scare quotes” around “journalism critic”. Howie Kurtz is to journalism like Justin Bieber is to Mozart

I can only assume they would have preferred the hard-hitting question “BENGHAZI BENGHAZI BENGHAZI … ?”

And me!

And that gas is coming out his ass.

Howie is the Jewish kid who got the shit kicked out of him in school - even after he gave up his lunch money.

I loved her laugh! She did it good!

Howie needs the work!

Oreilly tries to slide in a John Stewart slam under the guise of what some other hacks think too.

Faux can’t even do what they claim to do, the news. They have zero ability to do comedy and are thin skinned. John Stewart OTOH, reaps the benefits from their shallow, flawed, misdirected observances.
Faux is preaching to a listening impaired choir, the Daily Show is hearing their true meaning and explaining it simply with humor.

Kurtz is a “famous media critic?” Well I guess that makes Palin a great wordsmith and Ann Coulter a humanitarian.

No problem, thank you. It’s fixed. Should Have GIYF

Howie Kurtz, fired from the Washington Post and the Daily Beast for error-plagued columns, ends up at the propaganda arm of the GOP, and is unhappy with an interview by a comedian on Comedy Central?
