      After watching this last night, my respect for Jon Stewart, and for Cramer, went up. More for Stewart, but I am also thinking that maybe, just maybe, other reporters ought to watch this segment as a "how to" lesson in interviewing people, and asking tough questions of their interviewee, and not letting them slip and slide around.

      When I think about people who are hard interviewers, now Stewart's name pops into my head.

      It was speaking truth to power, and Cramer virtually admitted that the biz nets are in the tank for the ownership class. But really, isn't that why individuals buy communication outlets? To get their message across? Kudos to JS, but as long as there are rich guys wanting to look good, there will be flaks like Cramer obliging them for his paycheck.
