3. It'll be interesting to see what he says about CBS and the fake memos
I can't imagine he won't mention it.

4. Just got their email
With the election just a week and a half away, no one seems as hot as Jon Stewart, the host of Comedy Central's satirical news broadcast, "The Daily Show." He's become the go-to political commentator this year. Even before he made news on CNN's "Crossfire" last week by lecturing its hosts, Stewart complained about cable news to Correspondent Steve Kroft. He says cable news has become a street fight instead of civil discourse. "You know...what has become rewarded in political discourse is the extremity of viewpoint," he tells Kroft. "People like the conflict. Conflict, baby! It sells. Crossfire! Hardball! Shut up! You shut up!" But his best skewering is saved for the politicians, and he takes on Bush, Cheney, Kerry and Edwards this Sunday on 60 Minutes.

5. he will continue
Knowing that Stewart has been outspoken, even after returning to his own show and jabbing at them he will use this time with 60 Minutes to make a major statement. I just hope he goes the distance and calls out CNN and MSNBC in more detail
