Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wagn'nagl fhtagn ("In his house at R'lyeh dead Cthulhu waits dreaming."). --HP Lovecraft, The Call of Cthulhu

The stars hath turned in the heavens once more: Mighty Cthulhu stirs. His dreams reacheth forth, communing with those with ears to hear. Iä! Shub-Niggurath! His thoughts trample down along the pathways of thy mind; thou knowest His footprints, each of which is a wound...

I Knew It!

There was a bit of a row over at Daily Kos about Jon Stewart's interview with a Lying Douchebag of Liberty. For the most part, we were all happy that Stewart handled that goon so deftly, but we certainly weren't enjoying the constant accusation of being "stoned slackers." This is particularly annoying when you think about the kind of knuckle-dragging mouth-breathers that are Faux's usual audience.

Well, via an anonymous commentor over at One Good Move, I just read this on CNN's site:

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.


Apparently, Comedy Central didn't find Bill to be very funny, and so asked Nielson Media Research (the folks who do the Nielson Ratings) to conduct a comparative survey of viewers of each show.

They also added this:

Comedy Central also touted a recent study by the University of Pennsylvania's National Annenberg Election Survey, which said young viewers of "The Daily Show" were more likely to answer questions about politics correctly than those who don't.


Now that's comedy.
