Is Jon Stewart the Most Trusted Man in America?

Is Jon Stewart the Most Trusted Man in America? Of course not. What a silly headline. Far less than 2 million people watch The Daily Show every night; Rush Limbaugh is a little shy with his TV viewership, but he has a gigantic radio audience that exceeds that by a factor of ten, and you can bet that most of them believe every word that he utters. Just because you want something to be true doesn’t make it so.
