Do not miss Bill Whittle’s PJTV response to Jon Stewart

May 3, 2009  ·  Category: Current Events, Intellectual, Politics

This response to Jon Stewart by Bill Whittle is so incredibly good that I decided to become a paid PJTV subscriber, strictly to help support their new business model.

(If you’ve not seen the full exchange between Jon Stewart and Cliff May, it’s well worth watching, just to get a handle on the depth of Stewart’s intellectual skew. Aside from claiming Harry Truman is a war criminal — for which he later apologized without much explanation of why it warranted apology — he also asserts that the Geneva Convention should protect terrorists. His lack of historical context is staggering, especially considering how many young people today look to him for perspective on current events.)

I’ve been aware of PJTV in the background for a while. Usually they have intelligent, un-telegenic commentators saying interesting stuff that I’m hard-pressed to devote time to watch from start to finish.

But Bill Whittle — of long-time Eject!, Eject!, Eject! blogging fame — is in a class of his own. This guy is an inspiring wordsmith and articulate enough to excel as a star of this new online video format.

I hope to see a lot more like this.
