Jon Stewart on Tuesday did what he does best: poke fun at Fox News.
Responding to Fox’s condemnation of the media “piling on” the News Corp. phone-hacking scandal, Stewart said the company’s properties like Fox News and the New York Post are really just missing a valuable opportunity.
“I know what the problem is,” Stewart said. “You’re jealous. As a News Corp property, you’re not upset that your rivaled standards have been corrupted by your own conflict-driven, scandal-boner ethic. You’re upset that they get to have all the fun while you’ve got to sit on your hands. This scandal was made for you guys.”
“These are priceless puns!” Stewart added, suggesting such pithy headlines as “News Corpse!” “Aussie And Harridan!” and “Ginger Snaps!”
