Striking

Steve Young wrote in the Huffington Post With Stewart and Colbert, It's Do As I Say Not As I Do.

"That's the problem. We need S&C's intelligent, cut through the bull, make a point through satire, or make no point at all but it's still funny, kind of Daily Show, Colbert Report on the air. But there's no question they've 'crossed the line'."

"If a strike was only about those on strike, strikes would never work. It's not just about inflicting discomfort on "management" and their advertisers, it's about affecting everyone."

"What Stewart, Colbert and friends are doing is alleviating the necessity for AMPTP (Producers, etc) to get back at the table. Why should they? Their shows and stars are coming back and so are their viewers. Without the writers, pension, health benefits and daily fresh fruit they're NOT paying for now, they're actually able to do these shows even cheaper."

Sadly, I agree. Not quite enough to not watch Jon Stewart but enough to not watch Colbert and enough to not watch the other late night shows. I've turned off the TV and have been reading more, that's got to be a good thing.
