Tackling Bill O'Reilly on his home turf is never easy, yet Jon Stewart more than held his own last night.
In a vigorous, policy-laden debate, 'The Daily Show' host blasts Fox's 'panic attack' coverage of Obama and the economy. O'Reilly says 'the narrative of a couple of guys' doesn't represent the whole network.
But most of all, Stewart used his second appearance ever on "The O'Reilly Factor" to levy a robust critique of Fox News and its coverage of President Obama.
"Here's what Fox has done, through their cyclonic perpetual emotional machine that is 24 hours a day, 7 days a week: They have taken reasonable concerns about this president and this economy and turned it into full-fledged panic attack about the next coming of Chairman Mao," the comedian told his host.
"I think some people do that, but most people don't," O'Reilly responded, calling it "the narrative of a couple of guys."

I did see the unedited version where Jon Stewart defended his "pinhead" writers as giving employment to an undervalued segment of the population
