The Daily Show with Jon Stewart

While watching the conversation between John Yoo and Jon Stewart, I almost felt embarrassed for Stewart. He had clearly not anticipated Yoo's responses. I actually thought it was pretty funny when Yoo said, "First of all let me say, I don't find talking to be frustrating." That showed that Yoo was prepared, and knew what he was in for. He did not get flustered, and he had a very rational response to every question. The only way Stewart was able to hang in there, was to make fun of himself. I didn't feel like the questions were well thought of. It seemed like Yoo was able to answer different questions with the same answers every time. I agreed with the article when it stated that it wasn't that Stewart was not prepared, it was because Yoo is a lawyer. Stewart did use questions a lot of journalists would think of using also. Yoo's responses were so interesting that I think it distracted Stewart from staying on track and getting actual answers to the questions being asked. I have always been a fan of Stewart, but this whole interview made me question his skills as a journalist.
