Here's tha scary part of that which seems to be validated by this thread....
"The Pew Research Center for the People and the Press conducted a survey of young people to see where they're getting their election news. It turns out that only 23 percent get their updates from the nightly news, down from 39 percent in 2000. But here's the good news: 21 percent of young people ages 18 to 29 cited comedy shows like "Saturday Night Live" and Jon Stewart's "Daily Show" as their primary sources for campaign news. Twenty-one percent!"

FASCINATING! PLEASE TELL MORE WHY THAT IS SO.
One needs only to watch five minutes of the blowhards on FOX or MSNCB to see how abundantly clear that is. At the very least, a comedian isn't as afraid to **** of Washington friends and is much more apt to tell it how it is.
