Most folks in media land are passing around the Daily Show segment on the NYTimes today. It's painful to watch. Correspondent Jason Jones, a dude who blew us off at the RNC, tears apart the old lady of journalism.
But in an interview with a Times reporter, Jones shows respect for the Minneapolis coke addict turned wonder-child, David Carr.
From the interview:Did they tell you I'm coming to "The Daily Show" tonight? And are you concerned that I might leap over a railing and charge you in the studio?
I've seen most of you reporters and I'm pretty sure I could take all of you at once. Except maybe David Carr. That guy's a badass.
