Abstract

The article discusses the October 30, 2010 "Rally to Restore Sanity" in Washington D.C. to be staged by Comedy Channel faux-news anchors John Stewart and Stephen Colbert. The show is said to be designed to counter loud and crazy Americans who have come to dominate the national conversation. Some history is provided on the satiric comedy offered by Stewart and Colbert. They are credited with creating a humorous and sane answer to talk radio. Their television programs are said to be political without being partisan.
