Even More Intellectual Dishonesty From Jon Stewart

Comedian Jon Stewart on Wednesday bashed Fox News for parent company News Corporation’s $1 million donation to the Republican Governors Association.

Unfortunately, Stewart failed to inform his viewers that Viacom, the parent company of Comedy Central, has so far given disproportionately to Democrats this year.

Also missing in the “Daily Show” host’s attack of FNC and Glenn Beck was that News Corp. prior to this contribution had historically given more to Democrats than Republicans.

Such facts were unimportant Wednesday evening, for Stewart was on another in a long line of Fox News is the devil incarnate rants[.]

As of a July report, Viacom, the parent company of Comedy Central, gave 62% of campaign contributions to Democrats and only 38% to Republicans.

Something else Stewart didn’t want his audience to know:

Until now, the News Corp./Fox political action committee had given 54 percent of its donations to Democrats and 46 percent to Republicans, according to the Center for Responsive Politics — including $8,000 to Senate Majority Leader Harry M. Reid’s campaign committee and $5,000 to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s organization. News Corp. also gave $45,000 each to GOP and Democratic campaign committees on Capitol Hill.

News Corp. may be donating MORE money than Viacom during this political season, but according to NewsBuster’s Tim Graham, they’re spreading it out among the two parties much more evenly than those who sign Jon Stewart’s paycheck.

What say we all play a game and hold our breath waiting for Stewart to hold himself to his own standards. Let’s all die of asphyxiation in the hope that Mr. FunnyManClownFace will stop using the same race card he told us was maxed out and start exposing Viacom as a money machine for the Democrat party.
