Jon Stewart Bitchslaps CNN's 'Crossfire' Show

That's right, Jon Stewart will probably never be invited back on CNN, or possibly any other cable news network show ever again.

On today's episode Jon Stewart tells it like it really is

Order your own copy of it on DVD here. Make sure you specify the show name "Crossfire" and the show topic "Jon Stewart's America".

Andrew also pointed me to the BitTorrent here

While you're waiting for it to download, read the full transcripts here

This is why BitTorrent was invented folks. $35 VHS tape in 3-6 weeks, or about an hour download thanks to distributed computing? All so you can watch Jon Stewart take Tucker Carlson down a notch or seven. Absolutely priceless.

Thanks for the heads up Gil, and welcome to House 8!

BTW, for folks that don't know, Gil is basically who makes House 8 possible. So thank (or blame) him.

I hate to reply to my own post, but I have to say the transcript does not do this justice. I finally got the video downloaded, this is a must see. I've watched this video three times already, and it's funnier every time.

BTW, don't listen to Andrew. I'm not really the person that makes House 8 possible, that blame really does rest squarely on the heads of Andrew and Chris. I will maybe take credit for being the enabler.

dur. I'm a non techie and I don't understand how to get the download. The BitTorrent link downloads instantaneously. That can't be right. Please explain. Would love to see this...

Transcript is amazing though.

You need to download the BitTorrent client. Once you've installed this, open the BitTorrent file you downloaded. This will connect you to others who have the actual file. The BitTorrent file is like a pointer to the real file, distributed across the Internet.

The more people who have the file and are serving it to the larger community, the faster everyone can download it. It's like the Borg for porn and stuff.

this is truly worth watching... Stewart is easily one of the sharpest minds on TV - he stood up, started a great quarrel/debate, and withstood every blow from that blowhard Carlson.

He oughtta be an honorary contributor to H8.
