I'm as anti-Jon Stewart as the next guy but, come on. If you're going to do a 'Fake News from the Right' get somebody who can deliver a joke.

Dude that really is terrible, not even 1% funny, it makes me embarrased to be on the right.
I thought it was more funny than usual. It looks like they are taking the gloves off and speaking the truth.
It's hilarious! Luv Jody Miller. NewsBusters mocks the far left liberal progressive media (AKA MSM).
not funny.
so funny, anybody who doesn't think so is a nerdy progressive with zero sense of humorsense of humor.
Holy sh!t Batman, where did all the trolls come from?
Kinda lame when the right supporters emulate things that are vastly more funny and articulate. Which is lame in itself, the right is the underdog now and I'd like to root for them if they didnt represent themselves as square throwbacks to a era of depressing mud slinging without substance.
Lefties don't get this kind of humor or wit, it's not at a grade school level, full of profanities and hate towards the anything right of centre. I find it hilarious that they display their non sequitur minds so easily.
"duh, man I don't get it so it must suck!"
Yeah, Reader. Lefties so assume jokes will be told from their sensibilities – Letterman, Stewart that if it doesn't confirm their beliefs they don't find it funny. Even some neutral people probably feel the same way. These are good jokes (I write jokes for a living) and those wanting no laugh track, send Newsbusters some money so they can do it in front of a live studio audience if that's so important.
It was great, and you know so by the troll attack.
How can someone think Wanda Sykes is funny and this isn't? Go figure. This is dry humor, more clever than it is funny but I still chuckle. Keep it coming Jody!!!
The jokes aren't bad but the delivery is atrocious. This is worse than the "Half Hour News Hour."
The irritating thing is the concept is solid. Comedic news commentary from the right could be so effective if it wasn't absolute garbage. The laugh track makes it worse but if this was a 'live studio audience' I'm sorry, but nobody would be laughing.
Try doing this with one of the comedians who writes for Big Hollywood in front of the camera. It's worth a shot right?
actually…I'm a right wing dude…I usually agree with both Rush, Roger Hedgecock, Michael Medved and Hugh Hewitt (of course, not always), but lean more Libertarian than "centrist". Anyhow, I have to say, this doesn't compete on a level with the Onion, or even with what I've seen of SNL. The lines sounded more like they should be from a stand-up comedian, not a comedy news show. Also, although it was funny, it was shallow in a way that made me long for the deep comedy of SouthPark, which makes fun of almost everyone alike, and does so in an insightful way more often than most people care to admit. Well, you have my two cents…move along now!
