John Stewart reportedly turned loose on magazine editors at a New York event, taking on Vanity Fair, Time and others, when he spoke during a Magazine Publishers Association event in New York. And while this quote from Folio magazine may have been meant as humour, there’s enough truth in it to hurt:
“The way news is driven today is not through print,” Stewart said. “I don’t consider print media as relevant.” When Carter argued that television news consistently siphons what first appears in print, as evidenced by its coverage of the 2004 presidential campaign, Stewart said: “I didn’t say you weren’t important; I said you’re at the children’s table.”
