I watch the Daily Show and Colbert for the gags and a cheap laugh. None of the humor is really digging more than skin deep. All they do is present a political news story and apply cynicism to it. For some who only watch these shows and read fringe web blogs sometimes the stories in their minds take on the persona Colbert and Stewart build up or exaggerate as being reality. It's hardly brilliance. I think having an OP who disagrees with the accuracy of the story who also thinks 9/11 is an inside job is contributing evidence to prove the thesis.
