  These days there is no such thing. Churches are in on the act too, some going so far as to name specific candidates.

I saw his remark about you as a silly nudge, not as an attack.  I may be wrong on that, as I am not privvy to his inner thoughts.

You are wrong. Implying that someone is a Jew hater is hardly a silly nudge so don't expect me to buy that shit, Kurt. His attacks, though mostly veiled insinuations, have been growing in frequency & have taken on an increasingly personal bent. I have nothing against the guy but this day's snakery by him was enough for me.

If its a cause you're looking for, Kurt, you can do a whole lot better than this Swedish creep. Like FREE PALESTINE ! for example.  But then you'd have to become a Jew hater too.

If the message or content of the show is offensive, "quality" viewers will abandon the program and quality advertisers will follow. I don't know what is advertised on Jersey Shore but I'm sure it isn't Ameritrade. Probably Four Loko.

Just using Stewart because it was the topic show.  Not because of its values.

Then you also know that advertisers will pull their support when they disagree with a show's message or become pressured because of the threat of a boycott because of a show's message.
