Prestoff 04/21/20 3:05:33 PM #25:	I remember there were times Stewart was also get pretty preachy, but yeah he was definitely one of a kind.

If they did stupid shit he'd call them out on it which is kinda lacking with late night cheerleaders we have now. As much as a POS Bill O'Reilly is, I will forever give Jon Stewart credit and respect for actively engaging with him, for the two of them going on each other's shows, and for having that debate. Jon had no problem knocking somebody down a peg, but he was also willing to respectfully engage with people he deeply disagreed with and I find that trait commendable. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.

It actually used to be a liberal thing...listening to other viewpoints with respect. now its not really a partisan thing on either side. You have to find long form discussion to get the nuance across. TV format is outdated and will be gone in another decade imo <cite>Romes187 posted [p:937824217] in Is John Ol...
