it must be the LatAm coverage wot done it

Canaccord's 'Morning Coffee' caught me off guard today as it ran this in today's issue...
After Walter Cronkite’s death last week, TIME magazine’s web site ran a poll to see who the most trusted newsman in America is now. After the votes were tallied, the winner was…Jon Stewart. (CBS)
...and I had to check. These US-centric things don't normally come up on my radar but it just seemed so bizarre. Sure enough here's how the poll stacked up.

So I can now relax a little, as you don't guys up there believe the guff written and broadcast either. By the way, who are Brian Williams and Charlie Gibson?

Jon Stewart's Daily Show last night

If you haven't done so already, drop everything and watch Jon Stewart pulling CNBC apart on his show last night.

Watch the full 21 minute version of the show linked at Alex Dalmady's blog here (well worth it).

Watch the 8 minute section on CNBC at Felix Salmon's blog here (to get to the point).

Our friend Cur Allen Stanford gets a mention, glad to say. Unmissable.
