The Daily Show on Blogs

+ Posted by Josh Hallett on 02.17.05 // 09:29 AM

Wednesday's Daily Show with Jon Stewart had a segment on blogs. (Hopefully they'll post a video online in the coming days)

The segment dealt with the recent firing of Eason Jordan and 'outing' of Jeff Gannon. As always, Stephen Colbert did a great riff on the situation.

Realizing the investigative power of bloggers, he began his segment by saying that his name was not Stephen Colbert, but actually Ted Hitler. He also provided such great lines as: "all they (bloggers) have is the facts, and those aren't very credible."

Talking about the issue of journalists protecting their own, he said, "First rule of journalism is don't talk about journalism...oh wait, that's Fight Club"

I'll need to wait for the video, because there were too many great lines to remember.

Update: Blogumentary has a video clip
