Stewart and Colbert are hitting everything that the media holds dear, from misunderestimating crowd sizes to the presentation of awards.

I thought the Mythbusters "Wave" count was brilliant. They will be able to go back to the video and do a scientific analysis of the amount of people who were there that will give an accurate estimation of the crowd, which will - of course - be at least twice as large as the estimate given in the MSM.

The crowd - while largely white - is also predominantly YOUNG, putting the lie to the idea that the young don't care. Or maybe the crowd isn't younger. Maybe it's just healthier than what one sees at the typical tea bag rally.

The "Greatest Country" song was brilliant.

The MSM hasn't a clue as to what Stewart is about. They hadn't a clue as to what he would do with this rally. Well, the joke is on them, because as Stewart is proving, they are the joke.
