Daily Beast: Maybe Jon Stewart really is the most respected newsman

Neoconservative pundits are crushing on Jon Stewart. New York Magazine reports that Republican partisans from Bill Kristol to John Bolton are raving about the Daily Show correspondent, because unlike the "liberal
media elite" he actually lets them answer questions and takes their opinions seriously.

Stewart has "genuine intellectual curiosity," said former Republican Party spokesman and national-security hawk Cliff May.

"He always gives you a chance to answer," said Bush U.N. ambassador John Bolton. "Stewart fundamentally wants to talk about the issues. That's what I want to do." Who would have thought that a comedy show could have a civilizing effect on partisan hackery?
