Won't they ever learn?

Again, some organization asked Jon Stewart of The Daily Show to speak at their function. Again, he told them EXACTLY what he thought of them. The Magazine Publishers of America got this for their $150,000.

Stewart also said at some point he didn't think print media was really that relevant to the current cultural and political debate. At that one, you could hear some stifled groans from publishers and MPA officials. I suppose Stewart then realized he shouldn't bite the hand that was feeding him so lavishly — his whole performance took less than an hour. So he backtracked a bit by saying, "I didn't say you weren't important. I just said you were at the kids' table." More groans.
