Fair and Balanced?

Comedian Jon Stewart, America's most trusted newsman (we're not kidding), notes that Barack Obama is making a concerted final push for health care reform. The president's main opponent? Not the Republican Party. Rather, Fox News, which stretched reality when protesters without health insurance peacefully took to the streets to call for the inclusion of a so-called government-sponsored public option that would help them. Stewart last night roiled Fox News for making the demonstration seem like a mob preparing for armed revolt. But buried in the coverage, he found some unlikely rebels, including some disabled people. "I don't think you can storm things in a wheelchair," Stewart said. Stewart noted that Fox journalist Megyn Kelly, seemed particularly cruel, saying Fox just might "be the meanest sorority in the world."

Mr. RIKSHAZ9LIRK

What's Conan O'Brien been doing since he was ousted from his late night talk show job on NBC so that Jay Leno could have the slot back? He's been tweeting like mad. For instance on Feb. 25, he tweeted, "This morning I watched Remington Steele while eating Sugar Smacks out of a salad bowl. I was naked." And we'd assumed he was walking around in his underwear. A day later, he struck again: "Today I connected all the freckles on my arm with a Sharpie. It spells out RIKSHAZ9LIRK. Clearly I am The Chosen One."

Now O'Brien finally has something real to tweet about.
