Jon Stewart does Glenn Beck

That CNN's news coverage has been nothing but comedy-(and cringe-)worthy for the past several years, should not be news to anyone by now: perhaps there is no better testament to a society in which a network that breaks news based on fake twitter rumors is still held in high regard. However, in the spirit of reverse psychology memes, does the fact that Jon Stewart is now constantly poking fun at CNN's "news-slaughter", mean that it may be, paradoxically, time to start taking CNN - "the most busted name in news" seriously again? (...that's obviously rhetorical).

Last night on the Daily Show, Jon Stewart mocked freshman Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas), the firebrand conservative whose pugnacious style has been criticized by both Democrats and Republicans. 

Daily Show host Jon Stewart mocked conservative commentator Glenn Beck's plans to create a Utopian-esque "Independence, USA," saying it sounded like a "perfect Marxist utopia" with the way Beck described it.

A U.S. Senate investigation released last month found that the bank HSBC helped Iranian banks skirt American trade sanctions and Mexican drug lords launder money. They also did business with a Saudi bank tied to the 9/11 — after the attack. The kicker is that not one person is going to jail.
