Tworld News: Week of October 4, 2010
Tweeting the news– the environmentally sustainable way to stay in the know and not kill polar bears.
What did one Nazi say to the other? If you know the punchline that means you're a Nazi.
Between the technological efforts involved in the BP spill and now the machine being used to save the Chilean miners, it's shaping up to be a good year for semi-truthful, probably-horrible films directed by Michael Bay.

Rahm Emanuel Is a Thing That Starts with "D" and Rhymes with "Dick"
Why is the media suddenly so squeamish about calling a high-ranking White House official a "dick"? They used it so often with Vice President Cheney that I'd started to assume it was his first name.
Also, watch Jon Stewart's unfortunately-belated Daily Show response to Rick Sanchez's stupid radio comments, subsequent firing and general all-around Michael Scott-ism.
The Daily Show airs Monday through Thursday at 11pm / 10c.

Here It Is, Your Moments of Rick Sanchez
As you may have heard, late last week, Rick Sanchez was fired from his job saying silly things on CNN, presumably breaking some sort of non-compete clause after going on a radio and saying some really spectacularly stupid stuff…At first, Mr. Sanchez called Mr. Stewart a "bigot," but later took the word back, calling the comedian "prejudicial" instead… "Everybody that runs CNN is a lot like Stewart," Mr. Sanchez said. “And a lot of people who run all the other networks are a lot like Stewart. And to imply that somehow they — the people in this country who are Jewish — are an oppressed minority? Yeah."
I don't know how he thought he was going to get away with giving away gold like that for free while still under contract with CNN, but that shouldn't be a problem anymore.
Jon Stewart — with the ninja-like reflexes of a person who controls the media — has already commented on the Sanchez incident while hosting Comedy Central's "Night of Too Many Stars" over the weekend…
In talking about how people should donate for autism education, for which the show raises money, Stewart said: "If you went on radio and said the Jews control the media… you may want to hold on to your money."
Only time will tell if we'll get Rick Sanchez to kick around anymore. For now though, let's put a cap on Sanchez' time at CNN with these timeless Moments of Zen…
Sanchez Taser

Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert on the Fall of Prop 8 and the Coming Gaypocalypse
Enjoy life as you know it while it lasts, my fellow straight people, for soon we will be forced to endure the unimaginably horrific dystopia of two dudes that you don't know buying each other rings and fighting over floral centerpieces. My mind is bending toward insanity at the mere thought of it…
After the jump, Stephen Colbert reveals his flawless plan for us heterosexuals to ruin gay people's marriages the same way they're ruining our heterosexual marriages with their gay marriage-having.

Jon Stewart: Sh*t Is Flying Everywhere!
On last night's Daily Show, Jon Stewart pointed out that shit is basically out of control all over the entire world. The Gulf Coast is soaked in oil, Nashville is under water, Greece is about to collapse, the Dow went on a rollercoaster and some numbnuts tried to blow up Times Square. And that's just a few of the crazy things that have happened in only the last week. I knew it was a mistake to built Earth on that old Indian burial ground!
