Jon Stewart calls his show "Fake News." Faux News would never admit to that.
Dick jokes don't work with their "Family Values" audience. They even get squeamish when they hear "Dick Cheney."
They were counting on Alan Keyes to riff on African-Americans, but he refused to work with their top writer, Michael Richards.
The canned laughter sounded evil.
They lost the Latin audience with their "Frito Bandito Sings Babaloo" character.
They couldn't get Rudy Giuliani to do his drag routine again.
Their Abu Ghraib skit wasn't as funny as Hogan's Heroes like they advertised.
Ethnic jokes don't work on TV. They're for emailing to your racist friends.
Thanks to Bruce Tinsley's binge drinking, their cartoon segment made Mallard Fillmore look like the NBC Peacock.
Riffing on gay people got a lot harder since everybody getting caught in the act was Republican.
