Cramer is going to be a guest on The Daily Show tomorrow night. I can't wait.

Yeah I been following this, HILARIOUS stuff. I hope for a lot of screaming and yelling tomorrow but it'll probably be civilized and boring.

Re: Jon Stewart Lays the Smackdown on Jim Cramer

I still prefer Stewart over Colbert, so I'll be watching.

Re: Jon Stewart Lays the Smackdown on Jim Cramer

Hell yeah, Jon! I've been staying up nightly to follow this, hopefully tonight lives up to its potential...

Re: Jon Stewart Lays the Smackdown on Jim Cramer

So, not a lot of yelling and screaming, but it was a great interview. Cramer really had no real answers for any of Jon's questions/accusations.

Oh really! You must have missed Stewart on Crossfire a few years back, look it up on Youtube...Naw but seriously here is the video, I cant embed. Very civilized, Great interview, Jon Stewart Might be one of the interviewers on TV.

How is it that the most well-informed political analyst on television is working for Comedy Central?? I guess its best that way. And yeah, Cramer looked clueless.

I saw that live and it was PRICELESS. Stewart made those guys look like total boobs.

As for the interview last night Cramer didn't really have any answers and anytime he made a semi good point Stewart added another layer to his questioning/accusations. I expected a little more fireworks but it's not really necessary when the guest came off looking worse then he did coming in.

At least they kinda put a truce to this at the end (bad for us but good for them I guess)

John Stewart is an incredible interviewer/news reporter. Just because his show is meant to be comedy doesn't mean he isn't brilliant. I'd take his words over the major news reporters any day. Seriously though, how does a show on Comedy Central provide more insight and actual facts on this financial crisis than the people who are actually supposed to be reporting on just that.

Re: Jon Stewart Lays the Smackdown on Jim Cramer

While I'm glad Stewart was just as forceful in front of the guy as he is when Cramer is out of studio, I do have one problem w/Stewart's style. He needs to allow the other guy to speak. Too many times he cut him off w/out allowing him to respond. He went about it like a boxing match, where you don't allow the opponent to get off a punch. It should have been a debate, give the man his say. I agree w/what Stewart said & the point he was making. But you gotta give the guy time to answer.

Jim Cramer is cool sometimes, but he can be a douche, too.

I agree about Stewart, I don't find him funny at all.

Re: Jon Stewart Lays the Smackdown on Jim Cramer

When will Stewart lay the smackdown on Barney Frank and Chris Dodd? They are the guys in power unlike that idiot Cramer. They are the ones that.....nevermind.

Re: Jon Stewart Lays the Smackdown on Jim Cramer

Stewart did a great job in that piece. Cramer got killed, but he was honorable in the face of a public maiming like that.
