Yeah yeah... South Park's not conservative in the least. It's subversive though: what I want to know is why the fuck are the expletives beeped from it. It's fucking pathetic that an adult can't hear the word 'fuck' on television after 9pm: I thought freedom of speech fucking ruled? Fuck's sake.

That made little sense, which again is not very surprising....WTF????

ARE YOU DRINKING? If Greg and Craig were black I am sure their mothers would be deeply surprised and probably have a lot of explaining to do.

What is my oppression of you?...Or impression? My impression borders along the lines of moderation. I would love to have the ability to oppress all of your future posts....But I am only a lesser diety.

so during this thread the liberal attack lines have been. Hmmmm conservatives aren't funny that's why there aren't any conservative comedy shows. Now some on the left point out that there are funny conservative shows like south park which airs 20-24 new episodes a year. Ignoring the fact that the daily show airs that many new episodes in a month ;)

I want to watch a comedy show either on the big 3 networks or comedy central that brings them as guests and then attacks those who stray from the conservative line the same way the daily show attacks people who stray from the liberal line ;)

SOme would say there is no market for such a program. I disagree ;)
I point to the popularity of south park as an example of such a shows potential. ;)

Look, Cramer airs an investment show. If you are going to combat Stewart or take your show to a point where it becomes political you might be forced to defend your position.

Stewart is 100% aware of where he stands, makes no bones about it. It isn't hidden or wrapped in some sort of bullshit about being "fair and balanced." Plus... please remember it is, first and foremost,a comedy show.

You go onto Stewart you should have an idea of what to expect.

Get over yourself. Go whine elsewhere.

Uh, as you may have noticed, I tend toward the liberal side, and SouthPark is my favorite show.

While the creators of it do insert conservative viewpoints often, they tend to be very balanced overall.

I can only imagine that you meant the total opposite of what you said. Right? Are you on your meds?

The show does exist...It is called Fox News....I recommend you watch it...The show is a fucking hoot!!!

so you think of it as close to being down the middle. Southpark is what many point to being the most conservative show on the air today. Think about that for a moment. A very popular show that you would say " tend to be very balanced overall" is the most conservative show on the air today.
Imagine if more shows were balanced like that...the type of ratings they would have ;)

First of all, it is a CARTOON.

Second, yes there is a subtle conservative flavor, which makes it no less funny.

But they take great pains to balance the conservative outlook with other characters in the cast.
You have a transsexual elementary school teacher, a liberal Jewish lawyer, a black school chef who bangs everything in sight, and a conservative mom who is the biggest slut in the town.

They have also attacked conservative viewpoints they disagreed with, on many occasions.

My guess is you are jumping on the bandwagon of what someone else said earlier and you have never watched the show.

sorry i was in half a dozen conversations at the same time and the mods don't like quoting ;)

half an hour news hour was ok but nothing i would be ROFLOL.

what i was saying regarding direct tv was true. It wasn't a conspiracy it was just the poor execution on the marketing end of things. Also there advertisements for the program were poorly done. For a show that aired once a week I saw about 4 episodes and the repeated past episodes frequently. So catching a new episode was difficult. The problem with the show was it wasn't an issue of the day program. The show had a topic and they tried to make it funny from a conservative point of view. So in my opinion everything was forced and didn't come natural.

Now click on the link for a funny conservative show on foxnews channel called RedEye to bad its on at 3am ;)

I am a bit tired maybe i should use that as an excuse ;) It works every time Obama makes a mistake...he was tired ;)

Barack Obama 'too tired' to give proper welcome to Gordon Brown Barack Obama's offhand approach to Gordon Brown's Washington visit last week came about because the president was facing exhaustion over America's economic crisis and is unable to focus on foreign affairs, the Sunday Telegraph has been told.

There's right-leaning comedy: take Larry the Cable Moron (who's not even from the South...fucking impostor, the accent is faked). The problem is, right-leaning comedy tends not to be politically aware or insightful. Most of the great comedians with a political edge have been left-leaning, like George Carlin or Lewis Black.

And for what it's worth...IMHO Stewart is a genius. It almost makes one believe in God that, just when we need a figure exactly like him, there he is, yet sharper and more brilliant than you could have imagined. No one else is as capable of revealing the horrendous corruption and hypocrisy in our society with that inimitable combination of razor-sharp logic, in-your-face visual evidence, and deadpan wit. And I don't blame him one bit for going after Cramer. He made Cramer look like a schooled puppydog last night. Why? Because Stewart was right.

i think you should do a little "project":

Take some time off the boards, and watch cable programming for liberal or conservative leanings. Every time you get a liberal impression make an "x" in a blue notebook....when you get a conservative make an "x" in a red notebook...after three months or so of studious tv viewing, come back with your results and share them. After a week or so, try the project again....and over and over until a year is done.....then you could mail your findings to the RNC, and maybe they can present it to a panel for fairness in media....you could be such a good helper! But in order for this to work, you must do a LOT of tv viewing. But don't worry....i'll think of you often.

I dont think Jon Stewart has ever pretended to be 'down the middle'. And in fact, he openly gets a kick out of those who believe such and then criticize the left angle they see.

I do watch his show because he is funny, and if conservatives cannot laugh at themselves sometimes, then they are in deeeep trouble. Unless you dont have a pulse, you can't tell me that the 'destroying dough' joke wasn't funny.

Jim Cramer wasn't the target, but instead was merely a "face on the problem" of media overhype that drives armchair investors towards buying into bubble markets. Seriously, this is the first near-depression we have experienced since the coming of the 24 hr cable news channel. You can't tell me they didnt play a part in this tragedy. Naturally, you are going to get a bit of defensive spin from the media conglomerates.

The unedited version of that conversation with Cramer has been posted to the Daily Show website.

nah :)
there are already such study's and besides many liberals here have said there isn't any conservative comedy shows since they aren't funny. while a handful of liberals have pointed to southpark as being funny. when you google the word southpark conservative you can see others have felt it is a conservative show. To think that the lone real example people pointed to in the thread is southpark ;)

My point was shows like the daily show doesn't exist in a conservative version.
