Welcome to The Now

  Like Keaton said, when you're channel revolves around electoral politics, this is what you wind up doing. With their audience, The Young Turks should be telling people to hit the streets over every issue they feel passionate about instead of putting all their hopes in phantom candidates (or real ones that are deeply flawed).

I'm split on the decision to bring back The Daily Show and The Colbert Report without the writers . On one hand, the two shows are funny, informative and entertaining. On the other hand, it's essentially a betrayal of the writers. Not to long ago, United Hollywood and MoveOn.org had these guy's backs . But after this? Well : The WGA reacted angrily to the announcement, saying: "Comedy Central forcing Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert back on the air will not give the viewers the quality shows they've come to expect." Also of note : David Letterman (who owns his own show) is planing on making a separate deal with his writers to bring his show back. Jay Leno and Conan OBrien are coming back too, sans their writers; like Ellen Degeneres (who caught some major heat for this) their show with just be interviews and improv, no skits, sketches or monologues.
