Bill O'Reilly: Jon Stewart Going to Hell, Has Valid Points
From The CC Insider…
I don't know about you, but when I see Bill O'Reilly, I can't help but think of Christmas. And maybe it's just because his face reminds me of ham, but the fact remains, when Christmas needs a bloviating crusader, he is there to rouse the rabble on behalf of the downtrodden nearly-forgotten holiday.
So, after Jon Stewart hilariously declared war on Christmas this week, it came as little surprise when O'Reilly responded on his Fox News show last night…
You can see the original Daily Show segment in its entirety below.

Watch Jon Stewart on Rock Center with Brian Williams
From The CC Insider…
If you want to watch Jon Stewart and Brian Williams talking about trick-or-treating in New York City, then you won't want to miss this interview from last night's series premiere of NBC's Rock Center. On the other hand, if you'd like to see Jon Stewart and Brian Williams speak frankly about Occupy Wall Street, then look no further than this very same Rock Center video. On the third hand, if you want to see Jon Stewart and Brian Williams playing Chinese checkers while soaking in a tub of warm coleslaw, you'll have to wait until technology becomes available to extract my dreams.

Jon Stewart Discusses His USO Tour
From The CC Insider…
For the latest issue of Newsweek, Christopher Buckley interviewed Jon Stewart about what drove the Daily Show host to tour Afghanistan with the USO and how the experience has shaped his perception of the war. It's a great read, but if you have a crippling fear of paper-cuts, fret not, because you can also find the piece on Newsweek's digital sister The Daily Beast. And it's a good thing too; I was having a hell of a time finding the "copy" and "paste" buttons on the print version.Here's an excerpt…
"It's an incredible experience," he says. "From the first one that I ever did until now, always the thing that strikes you the most is they’re thankful you're there. It's the most shocking part."
He shakes his head. "They'll say to you, 'Thank you so much.' The guy who's been clearing mines in Helmand province and has just lost a leg. 'Hey, thank you so much.' And you’re like, Really? You want to say, 'You know, you’re right, I am the real hero here. Coming down to see you. You know that traffic on I-95? That Delaware Corridor? That is never not backed up.'"
I asked how he prepped for the Afghanistan tour of a dozen-odd forward operating bases.
"You get shots for as many 17th-century illnesses as you possibly can," he laughed. "If somebody does offer you a street taco, you say, 'You know, I think I’m going to stick with the Meals Ready to Eat.'"
You can read the full interview here. You can watch Jon talking about the trip on The Daily Show as well as his 2008 interview with Christopher Buckley here.

Jon Stewart Shows Rolling Stone The Daily Show's Orgy Room
From The CC Insider…
They say you never want to watch the sausage being made, and that may be true, but after seeing this Rolling Stone interview with Jon Stewart about the creative process behind a typical day at The Daily Show, I think I'd at least like to watch Jon Stewart describe how sausage is made. It would be one of the most candid, funny and interesting discussions about meat processing ever. (Audio NSFW)
For more, be sure to pick up the latest issue of Rolling Stone. It's the one with Jon Stewart on the cover.
