Just catching up on my Daily Show. In the episode on the twelfth Jon’s full-episode interview pillories Jim Cramer.

Cramer’s on his heels the whole show, surrendering and apologizing. Jon cuts him down in real time with relentless moral logic and videotape evidence. He whips the live studio audience into a towering, patriotic moral outrage before calling for criminal charges against NBC to the howls of the live studio mobience.

Cramer comes off as the first of the old guard to throw himself on the mercy of The People and offer to name names.

Jon Stewart, Lictor Populusque.

  3. Also via BB, Gillmor calls the AIG bonuses worthy of vigilante justice, if not outright revolution.
