Jon Stuart on Bill O'Reilly

On February 5 the entire, unedited version of Jon Stewart's appearance on The O'Reilly Factor was posted on the Fox Web site. I didn't know the interview was happening in the first place, so I actually gasped out loud when I read BoingBoing's posting of the news.

I proceeded to watch the entire thing. I was hooked. This is like, a rhetorical clash of the titans. People with such opposing view points, who so openly despise each other are very rarely in the same room together, let alone in the same room with a video camera! I'm glad O'Reilly thinks highly enough of his ability to control and manipulate interviews to invite Stewart on and I'm glad Stewart has the confidence in his own intelligence and character to accept the offer.

Here's the clip in in full, I hope it brings you as much satisfaction as it brought me:
