Jon Stewart to Tucker Carlson: You are as big a DICK on your show

[Bluebear]

Snap!

He was replying to Tucker saying "I think you're a lot funnier on your show."

[Worst Username Ever]

1. Holy shit! Is jon being mean or funny with these comments??

[Bluebear]

4. Honest!!!!

[tridim]

2. I think I scared my dog because I screamed so loud

when Jon said that! :) :) :)

[juliagoolia]

7. will they replay this ???

[luaneryder]

10. I know; I did the same thing

Screaming with laughter, clapping my hands madly and scared the cripes outta all four dogs.

[MallRat]

3. Omigosh... did he really call Tucker a "dick?"

n/t

[Bluebear]

5. YES!!!!

[ghostsofgiants]

8. He most certainly did!

Made my fucking day!

[Mojambo]

6. That was simply SUPERB

It must be noted that when you say to a comedian "You're not funny" It's a pretty serious attack.

Jon responded in kind.

9. it was good!

you don't diss the jon-man

[Digit]

11. Was that great, or what???? I screamed out loud, too!

Geez, I love that man!!!!!

[Bluebear]

12. Note to media and politicians: DON'T FUCK WITH JON!!!!!

14. But Roger Ailes might come to his door at night and take him away.

13. I saw and loved it..........Jon is SO above those guys

How could he stand to sit there while they pummeled him so rudely?

[Soup Bean]

15. Their blows had no effect.

Everyone was uncomfortable, including Jon. He must have decided he would rather keep his inegrity and be a patriot than be a corporate whore.

Unbelievable. I'm still in shock. I'm proud of him; they obviously were unaware of what he was going to do. Neither the right NOR the left of the corporate government wants something like this out there. Honest criticism in front of a general audience?

We can't have that in America.

[eek]

16. as the show ended you could just hear him

say 'that went grreat" in a theatrically sarcaastic way.


Yay Jon!

and yay for the guy who asked about the "hump on bush's back during the debates"

[eek]

18. and another thing..

Tucker asked what he thought about OReilly's vibrator.
Jon: I don't.
Tucker: where's your moral outrage?
Jon: Wher's *your* moral outrage?
Tucker: I don't have any.
Jon (turning away, disgusted/sly tone): I know.

[TrustingDog]

24. omg! I missed that part... thanks!

can't wait for the transcript!

[Bluebear]

17. Note to CNN: And yes, we think your show sucks as bad as Jon says

You just refuse to hear.

[JPace]

19. Good show Jon!

Glad you got it all in cause they won't
invite you again. Today's news outlets
cannot tolerate real truth....

It's like Dracula being presented with a cross.

[Soup Bean]

21. Yep...Stewart is now Van Helsing.

Tucker even said "come back soon" or something, in a very, very sarcastic way.

Jon sacrificed something today to say what he said. I'm not sure they'll give him another opportunity to do so. He's been the media darling, and in the corporatist's eyes, he just bit the hand that fed him.

It's kind of sad to say that to go on a TV talk show and tell the truth is what passes for bravery on the airwaves today, but that's what that was. Bravery.

Thanks, Jon.

20. I wish I could have seen that

I'm sure Tucker Carlson deserved it.

Let me know if someone links the the vid on the Internets somewhere.
