Jon Stewart: a negative influence on young socialists?

Parece que nem as piadas do left-leaning Jon Stewart chegam para satisfazer os segmentos mais radicais da esquerda americana:

Stewart's ever-increasing popularity among young viewers directly correlates with the declining influence of progressive thought in America. Coincidence? I think not. Let me explain.

Talvez isso tenha ver com a inclinação para proporcionar aos seus espectadores momentos como este, descrito por Jesse Walker:

After a ridiculously self-congratulatory batch of excerpts meant to illustrate Hollywood's history of taking brave stands for social justice -- I kept waiting to see the Klan riding to the rescue in Birth of a Nation, but for some reason they left that one out -- Stewart said sarcastically, "And none of those issues were ever a problem again."
