In case you missed it, here's Jon Stewart lambasting Cramer on last night's show.

Dan and others,
You talk as if a comedian is not of the same species as another human being. Just because he is a comedian doesn't mean he walks around in a clown outfit after he is off work. They lead normal lives as well as us. As normal as it can get being a celebrity. Come on, even though some entertainers are morons, they aren't some kind of new species. Don't you know anyone that is the person cracking jokes? The only difference is one guy makes money at it and the other does not.

If CNBC does not have the experts that should be asking questions of the CEOs and SEC and checking on their answers–then what good are they? Why should we watch or listen to them? What then IS business news, just passing on what the CEOs and SEC say??
Jon – I used to love your show, but the populist victim rant against Cramer was terrible. Grill Congress that hard next time-their ridiculous so-called stimulus plan loaded with useless pork – that is the real crime. I've never seen you be that hard on a politician in person. Bashing a rival network that hard makes your motive questionable. I thought you were above that kind of junk. Very disappointed.
Now that was television at its finest. Thank you, Mr. Jon Stewart for speaking truth to money. And here you thought it would be tough following Bush but your have an entire palette of crooks and scam artists to pick from. Keep up the good fight and the great comedy.
Some people are so stupid, that they think that you are the the one that is stupid. Jon Stewart is such a man. His pretense of expertise in world economics is hilarious. It is akin to Jim Cramer trying to critique Jon's comedic style or a club pro giving tips to Tiger Woods. This is all about demonizing a card carrying Democrat (Cramer) who seemingly turned on his own party.
Mr. Cramer's inherent understanding of economics is apolitical. He understands and can explain in economic detail how a butterfly flapping its wings in China turns into a hurricane here in the U.S..
When Jon Stewart earns $100 million through investing, I will listen to him.
My comment got censored.
Sorry, my comment was not censored.
kinda sad to see all of the Stewart Haters on here.
1. No, this was not Stewarts most hilarious and fun interview to watch, but it was brilliantly executed. I feel bad that Cramer was the one taking the hit, because it should havve been Rick Santeilli..(or whatever his name it).
2. I love the partisan hacks who are trying to make this about dems targeting anyone who disagrees with them. Cramer wasn't attacked b/c he's a dem traitor. He was targeted because he knows how these sleazy hedge funds work, but turns a blind eye to them.
3. Maybe this experience will create a shift in Cramer to not take CEO's at their word.
4. I find it odd that some people defend Cramer, on the basis of "everyone makes bad picks in the market now and then". You obviously didn't watch or missed the point of this interview. This was about these sleazy deals that lead to the recession were in today that go on in back rooms. Even if Cramer didn't perform these acts himself he is completely aware of these deals and yet ignores them.
The only thing Jim Cramer did wrong was getting in the middle. Jon's main argument is at CNBC. Jim messed up when he decided to comment back and we all knew that Jon would not and could not leave that alone.
Now I am avid watcher of both shows Mad Money and the Daily Show. Actually two of my favs on TV.
The problem with everyone today is that we are all looking to blame someone. The real enemy is not a rival news network (cause we all know that you only getting about 10% of the entire story on any news network) but the regulators. Not because they didn't do their job but because they couldn't. They didn't have the budget or power to enforce anything.
What bothers me the most is all the ignorant people that come screaming out blaming everyone but themselves. Think about common sense people. Why put a sizable portion of your paycheck into an account and then not pay attention to it. Don't get into a loan that you cannot afford.
Cody, Cody, Cody,
You apparently missed the point. You cannot opine in the area of world economics. Nor can you lecture us about this subject matter. Jim Cramer is so gifted in this area, that you cannot possibly understand anything that he knows. It is akin to me trying to explain real-time control algorithms or Stephen Hawking explaining theoretical physics to you. The intricacies of this subject matter is unknown and will always be unknowable to you. Live with it.
Steve touched on something that needs to be spelled out. Madoff may have committed the largest fraud in history by an individual, but it pales in comparison to the trillions of dollars in collective fraud in mortgage origination and securitization perpetrated in the mid 90's.

Who was in charge in the mid 90's? Oh yeah! Bill Clinton and his crony Barney Frank. They made it possible for all minorities to achieve the American dream of owning their own home. The only requirement was to have a pulse. No job required. No credit check, No U.S. citizenship required.
Do your homework!
