From today’s “Quick” edition of the Dallas Morning News:
Don’t call his peeps ‘slackers’
When Comedy Central’s Jon Stewart appeared earlier this month on Bill O’Reilly’s Fox show, the famed “no spin” spinmeister said fans of Stewart’s The Daily Show were a bunch of “stoned slackers.”
That didn’t sit well with the Comedy Central clan, who did some homework: According to Nielsen Media Research, viewers of Stewart’s show are more likely to have four years of college than folks who watch The O’Reilly Factor.
So there.
A Fox News rep said O’Reilly’s comments were made in good fun: “Comedy Central must have lost their sense of humor.”
