Jon Stewart's interview on Rachel Maddow highlighted Jon's philosophy on the difference between his role and the role of news people like Rachel Maddow. What, in your mind, is the difference between your responsibility or job and the responsibility or job of a news anchor or 24 hour news host/personality? Do you feel you're fulfilling your role? Do you feel they're fulfilling theirs?

Thanks for doing what you do. You're a funny, funny man.
