Very funny. Watch the replay if you didn't see it live.
The best line came from Stewart in response to O'Reilly's charge that The Daily Show makes fun of people's problems, adding insult to injury.
Stewart responded: "You're right, we add insult to injury. But you add injury."

Stewart was very funny. Love the comparison of France to the cast of Peanuts. And Colbert isn't bad either. Perhaps Tivo is called for.

Bill oreilly looked a couple of times like he wished to goodness he was on his own show instead of TDS. And at a couple of points it seemed like he decided to throw care to the wind and just start shouting, even devolving so far at one point to call Jon Steward a 'pinhead'. What does this mean? And is this the best Billy can do; start hurling playground-like insults when things don't seem to go his way?

It's funny to see how much of a problem Bill has debating with someone with a least bit of intelligence. Stewart really showed how childish Bill is and how he just makes up blatent lies whenever he thinks it might help make him look better.

O'Reilly performed brilliantly. He was put on the show to be made fun of and was joisting with Stewart and a hostile audience. It wasn't a serious interview so O'Reilly didn't take it seriously. Given the fact that it was Stewart's show and Stewart was hoping to embarrass O'Reilly, I thought Bill more than held his own and showed those who watched the difference between himself and Stewart--Stewart does his show for laughs (and he is good at it) and O'Reilly takes on issues he believes in and tries to correct what he sees as wrong.
No one won this match. Those who like O'Reilly will be proud of their man and those that dislike him and like Stewart will think Stewart outwitted Bill.
