Update to last night's post: Comedy Central compares O'Reilly's audience to The Daily Show's, and The Daily Show wins:
"Viewers of Jon Stewart's show are more likely to have completed four years of college than people who watch "The O'Reilly Factor," according to Nielsen Media Research."
Word to your mama, Bill.

Update to the Update: No one is letting this slide. The Daily Show viewers scored better on a political knowledge quiz than Leno and Letterman viewers. So Stewart knocked out 3XK's other boy- Letterman. Note: If you take the "political punch" quiz on the CNN site, you'll see that Leno actually makes more jokes about Bush than Stewart does (percentage-wise). I have to say I'm surprised, because I noticed how right-leaning Leno can be for the first time last night.
