Thank you to Jon Stewart and the crew at The Daily Show

As we watched the show from last week that pimped on the media coverage of the Obama children going to school for the first day, we realized that The Daily Show folks carp on the media nearly as much as everyone else combined. For good reason!!! Manufacturing news out of the school lunch menu at Sidwell Friends School is just pathetic. And it wasn't just one news outlet that needed filler, it was nearly ALL of them! How about doing more in-depth reporting on where all the TARP money is going or the latest on what is happening in Afghanistan or analysis of the current Palestine-Israel conflict (not opinions, but facts)?

All I can say is a big "Thank you" to Jon Stewart for doing your best to keep the honest. And Aasif Mandvi's piece on Sanjay Gupta was HYSTERICAL!
