“Young people today get their news from The Daily Show!!!”
But as I’ve been saying:
The ratings of Tosh.0 are higher than those of network-mates The Daily Show and The Colbert Report combined.
How does that supposedly translate into votes and worldview? (I wish…)
Anyhow, one reason Rush Limbaugh makes $40 million a year is because he stubbornly points out that one plus one equals two, when everyone else insist it equals 492 or “avocado” or “shut up.”
Quite simply:
The Daily Show has one million (cue Dr. Evil soundbite) viewers.
But as Rush points out:
There are way more than one million college students in America.
So…
There’s that.
And I’ll say it again:
Jon Stewart has a team of writers who help him put on a taped, one-hour show.
Rush Limbaugh has hosted a live, three hour show for 25 years, without any writers.
The. End.
