No-one gives straight news anymore. every freaking "host" has to spin it, and it is tedious to listen to.

still everyone seems to rave over Stewart - so I should keep an open mind and check it out.

He's back on Jan7th? ok i'll watch it. thanks
It's not a news show though, it's a comedy show. They take real-life events and incorporate it into their comedic routine. The news is often dumbed down but their comedy smartens it up - they take the obvious, something that should be common sense and make it even clearer for those who still can't seem to understand (e.g. Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11)
