Reuters tells us:
As Jon Stewart winds down his 19-year stint as host of Comedy Central's The Daily Show, he and Stephen Colbert sit at the peak of American punditry despite their left-leaning view of life, the universe and everything.
In an era of diffused voices and divided politics, they are well known, widely admired, and speak to Americans in ways that no one else does, according to a recent Reuters/Ipsos poll.
This poll tracks 10 different pundits. Split evenly between conservative and liberal. It is also worth noting that four of the five on the liberal side are comedians, while none of the conservative pundits are trained to tell jokes.

If everyone who didn't bother do vote in 2012 had turns up and written "Fuck You", the president with a landslide - twice as many votes as Obama - would be a Chinese bloke. Don't you DARE tell me that voting doesn't work your fucking terrorist commie fascist.
