    Jon Stewart mauls Jim Cramer, best interview ever

    Man, I've always had a deep respect for John Stewart but this just puts it over the top. It's horrifying that a comedian and satirist can embarrass an entire network, much less industry, in such serious fashion.

    3 parts, unedited. Has some F-bombs so may not be safe for work

    Watched it yesterday and loved it.

    To many host back-peddle when somebody comes on. No matter how much they talk about one another when they are alone they always act to nice when face to face.

    But John really pushed and shoved this time. Cramer stood no chance.

    Yeah I got a little upset at John for pulling punches on his McCain interviews during the election season after roasting him and Palin for so long. I haven't been this hard for John Stewart since he handed Tucker Carlson his own balls on his own show, Crossfire.

    Watch the unedited ones on that link I posted if you get a chance, there's about 10 minutes of additional footage and he just kicks the shit out of Cramer.

    I'm not one of those people that fantasies about spending time with a celebrity (Other then Portman) but I could totally see Stewart as being a great guy to have launch with or something.

    Poor Jim Cramer, i like the guy but he had it coming. The part that strike the most was when stewart tells him that when he watch jim show he gets angry because "its not a fucking game" but then again isnt this what stewart is doing with the news?

    Big difference like Jon Stewart said. They are both Snake oil salesmen, but the daily show labels it "Snake Oil" the others dont.

    Cramer is a recognized financial expert who gives advice that people listen to when deciding when how or where to invest their money. Which is fine, except that he was obviously aware of the gimmicks involved in falsely inspiring confidence in stocks and yet did nothing to stop them from happening (and even told people to invest in stocks that eventually went under because of those underhanded tactics) even though he probably had the influence to do it.

    Stewart is.... a comedian. His show is a giant satire that pokes fun at politicians and the rest of the media. If people viewed Stewart as someone they trust to give unbiased news reporting you'd have a point, but everyone who understand the show knows that it isn't the case.

    If Jon Stewart claimed he and his network were "the experts people needed", maybe I would call him a hypocrite in that respect. But he works for Comedy Central. It's the job of not only Stewart, but the entire network to satire everything. If he worked for one of the mega news stations, I guarantee he wouldn't act in this manner. He gets paid to satire really.

    I wish Rush would go on the Daily Show. I know O'Reilly has before, and Bill usually pusses out whenever he is on a show.

    People look to Cramer and CNBC and all of that stuff for important, life changing finacial advice and information because those guys and those sources are supposed to be serious, professional reporters of complex issues. People look to the daily show for cheap laughs and simple entertainment based around every day news. There's a big difference between what Stewart does and what Cramer does, and when things need to be serious, Stewart gets serious. Cramer's advice, and many people like him, cost hundreds of thousands of millions of people hundreds of thousands of millions of their hard earned cash. What has the Daily Show cost it's viewers?

    I saw this last night, and have a new found respect for Stewart.

    The people are CNBC(including Cramer) are manipulating the stock market for their own gain.

    Watch: YouTube - Stock Market Manipulation - Jim Cramer

    They pump stocks up that need to be pumped up and they push down stocks that need to be pushed down. The whole thing is for their benefit and not yours. I can't believe people are so retarded to not get that...

    I don't think Jon pusses out so much as O'Reilly is just as good at twisting words and smooth talking as Jon is.

    I watched and waited for a mauling and it never happened.

    Daily show needs to stick with funny and not this serious bullshit
