Well, much has been made about that email (well, much made by one person). But the email itself has been redacted... here's the entire email, and note the bolded part:
Consistent agenda: if you didn't see it, Wednesday TDS did 6 minutes of a scathing satire on Mr. Obama's semantic gymnastics to justify droning an American citizen comparing it to Mr. Cheney's redefinition of torture as "enhanced interrogation techniques". I'd post the video on here but TDS autoplays. And yes, Colbert is funnier than TDS
[rquoter]From: [redacted] [mailto:xxxxxx@thedailyshow.com] Sent: Thursday, December 12, 2013 4:13 PM To: Andrew Schiff Subject: RE: FW: The Daily Show We NEVER edit out of context. Meaning we never ever show responses to a question we never asked. For starters it LOOKS BAD! But in all seriousness it’s not our prerogative to attack our interview subjects & slander them (unless they say really horrible, awful, racist things… but last I checked Peter doesn’t say such things!). The general idea is to pretend this is a real news interview & correct our correspondent when he/she asks goofy questions. Our questions usually come from misunderstanding the other side’s arguments, for example. We want our interview subject to play the straight guy & that way they look normal & we look like the fool. In this case Samantha Bee is our correspondent. She’ll take things she heard at these fast food strikes & report them back to Peter. Peter tells Sam why she may be mistaken, or what the strikers aren’t taking into account, etc. That’s the general idea. And we’ll go over all of this before we start up the cameras next week. (Peter & Jena can also discuss these concerns over the phone tomorrow.) But rest assured– NOTHING will be edited out of context. If you guys have any other questions or concerns don’t hesitate to bring them up!

That's for the sender's sake.

The article doesn't make sense with this quote. Ok...so then when people go on they should treat it the same. I also don't take Conan's monologue serious. I don't know anybody that only says, I'm informed, I watch the daily show. I do however really like John Oliver's show and it ridiculousness and really well done pieces. You should check that out.

Disagree, he doesn't trash America, just stupid, greedy or corrupt Americans. You don't like him because most of the people you support qualify under one of those terms.
