I watched the entire clip... honestly, I didn't find it funny or humorous at all... it was just a low level piece of attempted humor, it wasn't legitimate humor... don't get me wrong, I'm not offended, I just didn't think it was funny... I never saw John Stuart's work before, but now I know why... maybe I'm used to reading truly funny scripts and comedy scenes for film from writers who really are brilliant (sorry for using a typically overused word), but this was just low grade cheap television mockery of a poorly managed news item, I would let a good comedy writer try his hand at it, you would be surprised at the difference... unless you're a clown, good humor is played straight, that's what makes humor genuinely funny, and this guy Stuart did everything he could to milk it by clowning around with the material in an effort to pull some humor out of it, so that if the audience didn't laugh at the material itself then at least they might laugh at his delivery, but this guy is not a good clown, he wasn't funny at all and neither was the material, his delivery was awful... frankly, if that were an audition clip, I would politely thank the guy for coming and then tell him to keep his day job...<g>
