I think Shannon was pointing out that he makes fun of people constantly who edit interviews to make things sound the way the interviewer wants them to sound, and so it would be bad of Stewart to engage in the same thing. Thus, he provides unedited versions as well.

Hi there shannonlee,
I'm sorry, call it MondayBoink, I didnt quite understand what you were saying?

Let's see, I thought Stewart was putting up whole films of his shows afterward, inc parts not aired, right?

and you are saying, do I have this right? that Stewart uses OTHER people's clips that dont show to the whole film by those OTHERS?

sorry to be so dim

thanks Shannonlee, nice old fashioed name by the way. Musical.

Hi Arch…Stewart makes a living off of people that do exactly that…
He would be setting himself up for a big fall if he were to do the same.

thanks Joe, that's good info about Stewart's editing of his interviews… and posting the uncut online if he runs too long. Good to hear, actually. Amazing to hear, really. Public often has NO idea what interviewee said in context on tv shows after edits.

I liked how Stewart prefaced the whole interview with ,”Are you tired of being wrong all the time.”

One of the things we are desperately in need of is someone who will follow up their own reports and interviews and point out when a guest/subject has lied. And do it with the same focus they gave the interview.

Good show last night…Bill got caught…it doesn't happen very often, but Stewart got him. Had Bill not been so rattled by the fact that he was caught, he could have come up with a reasonable response…but he was done.

I don't care much for Kristol. It was a fun interview to watch.

By "unedited" I mean that Jon Stewart, as he sometimes does when he is particularly engaged in the interview, let it run too long in the taping fit the cablecast version's alloted time. What he does then is put the full, "unedited" version on the web. The last time I remember him doing this was when he interviewed Jim Cramer.

Joe:

Any idea why (and by whom) this was edited out?
