ROSE IN A FISTED GLOVE

October 16, 2004 by Tim Riley

Jon Stewart gets jiggy on CROSSFIRE last week (video here):


STEWART: But let me ask you guys, again, a question, because we talked a little bit about, you’re actually doing honest debate and all that. But, after the debates, where do you guys head to right afterwards?



CARLSON: The men’s room.



STEWART: Right after that?



BEGALA: Home.



STEWART: Spin alley.



BEGALA: Home.



STEWART: No, spin alley.



BEGALA: What are you talking about? You mean at these debates?



STEWART: Yes. You go to spin alley, the place called spin alley. Now, don’t you think that, for people watching at home, that’s kind of a drag, that you’re literally walking to a place called deception lane? (from CROSSFIRE transcript for 10/15/04…)



On second thought, Salon’s Charlie Taylor says it far better.
