One should not be looking at anybody who has a "show" to do Serious Journalism, liberal or conservative (God forbid, libertarian). Truly, is there serious journalism on Wolf Blitzer's show? He'd like to think so, but no.
Countdown with Keith Olbermann is amusing and often hits the nail on the head, but serious journalism? Hardly.
The Daily Show with Jon Stewart more often touches on the essence of an issue than most "news" shows.
These are not called "shows" for nothin'. It's ostensibly smart entertainment. Period.
