CNBC and Comedy Central
CNBC is at this moment giving us some cutting edge financial news, by employing one of their own, John Harwood and some other turd to play a "who said it" game, Obama or Roosevelt. It speaks for itself....

Harwood told Erin Burnett not to make him look stupid on TV or it would end up on Jon Stewart. So I just thought, maybe Comedy Central (Viacom) and CNBC (NBC/GE) could work a deal simulcasting CNBC's daily running joke of a program on Comedy Central. Just put it on the network from the get go. The whole thing is a joke, so put it on the right network!

Maybe Viacom and get GE to dump the CNBC network and they can take it over. Firing them all and shit canning it.

A daily round-up of all the dumb-ass stuff said on the snooze programs.

2. Bingo
Jon is doing his best to do that, but a dedicated program would be nice.
