Why Isn't 'The Daily Show' Covering Occupy Wall Street?
Whether or not you think the Occupy Wall Street protests are effective, you can't deny that they are news. They've been covered by most of the major networks and newspapers at this point. Even NPR, who initially released a statement explaining why they weren't covering the protests, have decided that the story is too big to ignore. However, one major news source has continued to ignore the protests, and it may not be the one you'd expect: The Daily Show. That's right, America's most trusted newsman and the sarcastic voice of a generation Jon Stewart has stayed silent on a group of protesters who probably all watch his show.
