Journal #2 - "Is Jon Stewart a Credible Source?"

After viewing Jon Stewart's show from Tuesday, Jan. 12, 2010, I feel entertained and a little distressed. I believe that Mr. Stewart is just as credible as anyone in the media today. However I have very little faith in any media journalist that is popular in modern America. I have found that in modern society, there are extremely few "REAL" and "TRUE" journalist. Mr Stewart is more of an entertainer than a journalist. He targets his views and comments towards a young generation and somewhat more right in politics. I agree with a lot of what he says when I do have the time to watch or listen to him, I just have so little respect for any journalist today that I really don't watch the news much anymore. Jon Stewart is fun to listen to, as far as credibility, my disillusionment with all of the media presently overshadows any respect I may have for him or any other journalist.
