Stewart Rips Apart 60 Minutes & 'Pile of Shit' TIME Magazine

Part 2 (link to the Time magazine part) http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/mon-november-11-2013/time--meh-culpa

(youtube) Jon Stewart tackled two American journalistic institutions on Monday night: 60 Minutes and TIME Magazine. One of them did not do its due diligence to investigate the veracity of a report about a tragic time in recent American history. The other called a man fat. Either way, Stewart was having none of it. Stewart mocked the pithy apology 60 Minutes and Lara Logan gave for the error, mockingly adding "it's such a pain in the ass to check, and then what if it was bullshit?"

Stewart also got to dust off his Lindsey Graham-Tennessee Williams impression to zing the South Carolina senator for using the 60 Minutes piece to block Obama nominees.

But as Stewart noted, "As half-assed as it was, at least they admitted they were wrong." He called out TIME for basically calling Chris Christie a "fat fuck," and was stunned at the total lack of apology from anyone at the magazine. So Stewart shot back with the cover of the latest Daily Show Magazine: "TIME Magazine is a Pile of Shit."
