All the "then and now" statistics don't even make a case against Obama.

That case can be made when similar evidence arises.

How is it biased? Stewart makes no claims that he's not left-leaning. You'd be hard pressed, though, to make the case that he's misleading, or dishonest.

Why does that scare you?

Start here and read I guess. Not so much "Big Business" in there but a definitely Dem/Lib bias.
MSNBC - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Here's one slightly broader in that it's more media outlets than one.
To GOP, blatant bias in vetting - Jim VandeHei and Mike Allen - POLITICO.com

And this guy has to be, at least, as LOL worthy as O'Reilly on his worst day. Yet, sadly, remains a very prominent figure.

There's plenty more.

Your question and statement do not make any sense.

That he´s misleading or dishonest? I wouldn´t know, I don´t watch the show. I do know he is a very influential figure among youths though. All I´m saying is, you can´t disregard the Daily Show as just a comedy show if people are actually watching it to get their news.

You're right... They don't lie, but you know what holds the most value in their video?

The unemployment numbers. They are no where near accurate. The way they're calculated is wrong.. What we don't see in those numbers is the amount of people who are unemployed for real vs the actual "unemployed" Until someone can show the actual amount of people who entered the labor force in the last 4 years the numbers will never be right.

Think of it this way.. If I had 2 million people per year graduate school, get a job, and then quit that job in order to go to college we lose out on a whole 2% points of the workforce. But....those numbers are not calculated and we have way more than 2million people entering and withdrawing from the workforce every year. A simple 2-3% increase in the governments definition of unemployment can also mean that 6 million people picked up a job for a few months and half of them left.

Until these numbers accurately define the unemployed I don't see how anyone can believe them.

Im not saying i agree with the unemployment number calculation but what they used is the same number the government uses. I think anyone with any intelligence can see thru the numbers game being played by the fed in this regard. However if they had used any number but what the fed uses everyone would have been crawling up their ass over it.
