Jim Cramer scheduled to be guest on Thursday's "The Daily Show"

Don't you feel dirty cheating on NGR, DaShi?

I can handle two juvenile-minded peeps at once. Besides, you're hardly any effort.

Let's just say the timing of the feud leads one to that conclusion as all these supposedly important issues existed before this "weeklong feud of the century." I've also seen the sweetheart interviews he gives to those he's more likely to agree with politically.

What "timing"? Stewart prepared a clip to go after CNBC after he decided to book Santelli (made famous by concervatives picking up on his rant). Stewart's clip blows up on the internet, so Universal and its media offspring decide to bilk it.

AS for sweatheart interviews, Stewart is generally not that confrontational even with most conservatives (those that agree to go on his show, at least).

You're making my point for me GePap.

Wow, a show tries to get guests that have some possible ratings appeal, like the flavor of the month..what a shocker. Next thing you will claim is that scantily clad attractive women might be featured in advetising aimed at men!

Stewart picked on CNBC for a vcery clear and simple reason - they were the cheerleaders of the bubble. That is why the best part of his initial rip into CNBC was the interview with the guy running the multibillion dollar ponzi scheme where the CNBC "reporter" ends by asking if it was cool to be a billionaire. That level of stupidity is instant classic.

Since when does "news" mean "any **** that happens" ?

You've watched any 'news' in the last 10 years?

[Darius871]

Since when does "news" mean "any **** that happens" ?

Since television, or thereabouts. Certainly recent years at the latest, as Imran noted.

The people at Fox news or CNN claim they are reporters. Heck, they even have people in the press pool, Press still meaning reporting, as opposed to getting the wrinkles out of shirts.

Yes, "reporters." As in "reporting" "**** that happens." Not paragons of journalistic virtue.

Stewart has never once claimed to be anything other than a comedian.

I'm aware of that, which is why I only replied to the laughable "foremost critic of our time, a modern day Mark Twain" comment. As comedy it's excellent.

Can you, or Jon Stewart, show us any credible sources warning about conditions prior to the downturn of US home prices?

The Economist? Financial Times? WSJ? Oh, I forgot, the WSJ is a patsy for the conspiracy, nevermind them.

Your local financial advisor, and just about everyone else, was a cheerleader for the bubble. That's how bubbles work. An old axiom goes that when your cab driver is telling you to buy, it's time to sell. The problem is when you agree with the cab driver, and don't pick up on that or any other negative signal.

That's how you end up with a single tulip bulb selling for 'two loads of wheat; four loads of rye; four fat oxen; eight fat swine; twelve fat sheep; two hogsheads of wine; four barrels of beer; two barrels of butter; 1,000 pounds of cheese; a marriage bed with linens; and a sizeable wagon to haul it all away.'

It'e easy to point and laugh at the fools after the fact. What has been demonstrated countless times over the last several hundred years is that it is very difficult to escape being a fool during the fact.

So did he actually do anything different on his show today?

He who? Cramer or Steward? Steward has Fridays off, and I didn't see Cramer.

O'Reilly was a kick though. In Mr. O's humble opinion, Steward went after Cramer when Cramer criticized Obama. The problem with that theory is that Steward went after CNBC, giving a brief mention to Cramer as part of it. Cramer then blew it up, Steward replied, and the rest is history...and economics, and maybe some Psych 1.

[DaShi]

So that's where DD is coming from. Should have known he didn't have his own idea.

His name is Jon Stewart - with a 't'.

You should probably watch the interview first before saying anything. Just saying.

[notyoueither]

You should rent a clue before saying anything. Just saying.

I don't think you should make fun of him just because he's illiterate and doesn't know how to spell his own name.

That's gotta be from "Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of the Crowds" by Og M-somethingorother...right?

No, or maybe.
