CNN is made up of witches and Fox News is untrustworthy because an Australian runs it. That’s what Comedy Central is skewering the cable news networks with in new ads. Coming out of two weeks of Republican and Democratic convention coverage, the network put out two new spots today promoting its The Daily Show With Jon Stewart and The Colbert Report‘s “Indecision 2012” coverage of the presidential election. It could work out for them: Last week, Comedy Central beat out Fox News, MSNBC and CNN’s coverage of the Republican Convention in key demographics. Check out the new spots here:

I loved the Daily Show’s devastating critique of Obama the other night (narrated by Larry David).
Devastating critique? I can tell you’re a right-winger as you only see what you want to see. Do you talk to empty chairs as well?
For the record, that video narrarated by Larry David (a hardcore Liberal) is what we in the biz call a “satire”. I’ll wait here while you look it up on Wikipedia.
Doesn’t that same Aussie own your shows too, Jonny and Stewbag?
No, he doesn’t; Comedy Central’s parent company is Viacom. (Not that it matters; they’ve mocked their ACTUAL boss, Sumner Redstone, on multiple occasions. THAT’S WHAT COMEDIANS DO.)
And what’s with “Jonny AND Stewbag”? Jon Stewart is the one who got nicknamed “StewBEEF” by Tracey Morgan.
I guess you’re just one of those guys who likes to bitch about those awful shows that you don’t watch, but assume MUST be bad because your beloved Fox News TELLS you they are.
I clicked into the comments JUST to see if somebody would take the ads seriously. Congrats, you’re stupid on a level usually reserved for people who get in a twist over articles in the Onion.
But since you asked, the answer to your well informed question is No.
Comedy Central is irrelevant. Take on CNN and Fox but not the morons at MSNBC. Could it be they’re showing the color of their panties?
So in addition to being a teabagger idiot, you’re a sexist too.
Well…then again, I shouldn’t be surprised. Being a teabagger pretty much means you’re a sexist anyway. And a racist. And a bigot.
Oh, and Comedy Central is thriving quite well, thank you. There’s so much idiotic crap on CNN and Fox News every single day that they’re going to keep The Daily Show in business for a very, VERY long time.
