If only we could have calm politicians. I can have a better conversation with my 15 year old granddaughter about politics than our elected officials. The Republicans at The State of the Union Address were absolutely disrespectful and embarrassing to our country. #ProudDemocrat
@@teresahansen863: so your girl Pelosi, after hearing Trumps' State of the Union Address , rios it up into pieces in front if everyone is Not disrespectful???... give me a Break!!!... get a clue
Dismissive when proven wrong; in your face when proven write. Every FOX anchor is like a dad scolding their child whenever the kid's actually right about something.
Denverb 1. This is a seven year old interview 2. You chose to 'set the record straight' by replying to a joking RU-vid comment. Why'd you even bother? Let it go, dude.
Jordan Oliver ahah? Triggered? It was a joke Jordan... it was a joke.... I’m not Jew and have no idea who you are nor do I care. Nobody is triggered.....sigh.... you got this Jordan, I believe in you... Now hush
Well you know FOX conservatives. Diversity just means different shades of the same color. FOX anchor 1: "I hate Common." FOX anchor 2: "I greatly dislike Common." FOX anchor 3: "I don't like Common." FOX anchor 4: "I don't think what Common did was right." FOX audience: *applauds* "Wow, such diverse takes on a serious, pressing issue."
19:19 & 19:43 I have a feeling John regrets giving both of these answers right about now haha… WOW.. Talk about EERIE & Prophetic… I bet he's hoping no one ever sees this clip again lol… He did Characterize Donald Trump very well though… He is just like a big spoiled over weight 6 year old who writes his name on everything because he doesn't want to share with anyone.
@@thetayterminator1436 This could be me being a blind optimist, but I don't think he'd regret that first statement. I think Trump's popularity is faltering with liberals and conservatives, and I think the cards will stack against him in 2020. But they said that during 2016, so I'm unsure. In any case, I don't think Donald Trump can undo the fabric of this nation.
@@marioalfredo5542 We have survived a Civil War, Great Depression, two World Wars, social unrest over Women's Rights and Civil Rights, four presidential assassinations, wars based on false pretenses, and on and on. We can get through The Donald.
"Why are you drawing the line at Common?" We all know why he drew the line at Common. Twelve years later and Jon Stewart is still dropping that mic in republican faces! ❤
The GOP doesn't care about crime unless it's a person of color that commits it. They won't call mass shooters terrorists, they won't call white collar criminals thugs... The racist rhetoric is clear. Fox news and the GOP are very clearly targeting a very specific demographic.
In Common's defense , I see a repeating documentary on how too many African Americans that are targeted by cops and die from excessive force . They were literally targeting unfairly and die from racist cops . And what happened @ Wounded Knee is like Jon Stewart said is exactly the same .
@That Montage Nerd John Roberts just mentioned that Pettifogging was inappropriate in the Senate in 1905 to say during Trump impeachment. I'd never heard this word it's hilarious to see O' Reilly say this. So that means Bill would have been banned in the Senate back then lol
But...by using the word "pettifogging" he's using a bigger word than Stewart uses in the entire interview...OH sorry Stewart says that in the video. My bad. Ignore me. Carry on.
elimcfly350 he just rocked him back on his heels. "That's an interesting point" Read: this is totally new information to me and I need to process how to respond. Jon came very prepared and clearly won this point.
haha...As soon, as he said that...and he did that sarcastic surprised! face....I legit screamed BAM!!! and threw my fist in the air...god damn, I miss watching him.
When Bill realized Jon had a perfect analogy he tried to back out so fast, talk condescending and also dumb down his own intellect.. I can’t stand Bill
You can tell by some of the moments they laughed that they don't share the same opinion as Bill. Makes you wonder how they feel on the days that John is not present . . .
Quick Dry Yeah, but gotta be honest friend, not really feeling the love you espouse for Stewart. Kinda think you actually hate his politics. But meh, whatever.
@Quick Dry I wrote another comment but I think the window crashed. In case you see two replies. Simply summed up, Im not sure I understand how your comment/question follow what I said. To clarify my comment, its that warping a standard so far that ones perspective on an issue drags in a lot of baggage. Like people that think social justice warriors are a real thing, let alone a threat to society. Or blowing up buzz word concepts like 'victim playing' and 'race card' like they actually apply.
11:57 - 12:14 this moment always lives rent free in my head for years. Thinking that the president should worry about who comes to his poetry slam is crazy lol
@Cole Pratt This is one of the most hatred spewing, lying and divisive networks there are. I would rate Al Jazeera news better than this, and I barely watch that. Fox news is a sitcom that appears to be a news media, and most of the anchors are given scripts or ordered what to speak about. They are all actors in a very comedic television show. I find it funny how much they get debunked, even by their own people.
@Cole Pratt For one, tucker carlson was debunked by scientist bill nye, megyn kelly was debunked when she falsely claimed Jesus was white and santa clause was white and will always be white. Bill o reilly was debunked by this black guy who worked for the government, I don't remember his name. There are numerous times they were debunked. Look it up if you don't believe me.... I'll wait
@Cole Pratt It's literally on youtube, where do you think I got it? By the way, if you look up the original history of the concept of santa claus, the man that it was derived from was never white. Before you even comment I have no evidence, search this up "times fox news hosts were debunked" and there is actually a video featuring a compilation. So, I will the say the same thing you said to me, try again, look it up, and prove to me that I'm wrong or as a man named stephen crowder once said, "change my mind", if you can.
Fox News has been leading one of the most blatant misinformation campaigns for the US for 40 years. Republican voters are STATISTICALLY less educated than democratic voters and are super easy to manipulate VIA Fox News. Really unfortunate, the majority of educated democrats don’t even blame Republican voters anymore, they simply have been given such a small viewpoint and it probably will never change on a huge scale. Doesn’t really matter though because republicans are already dwarfed by democrats in number, they just need to get out and vote and help these poor, stupid republicans from voting for leaders who help the rich lol
@Aqal Mand Doubtful he researched the topic, he knew what angle he wants to take and led O'reilly into a trap. Watch any Stewart conversations with people of opposing views, he was a master of luring people into those debate traps.
Jon unloading on opposition with solid comedy AND intelligent discourse. My brain is exhausted just trying to keep up with him, and he still has more in reserve. Would love to see him teach *that* so others are better equipped to ridicule absurdity.
Yeah, O’Reily and Stewart were the best of political frenemies. They would always invite each other to do stuff publicly, to voice their opinions even though they were severely different. Stewart and O’Reily respected each other because they both believed that the other genuinely believed what they meant and that they were in the right, but more importantly that they had a civil discussion about it.
It was the death of this kind of civil dialogue, where you could effectively have polar opposite clash, but in a meaningful fashion, that's possibly the greatest loss to our society in the current time. Now it's all just shouting and tribalism punctuated with manufactured moral outrage. If Jon Stewart and Bill O'Reilly can interact like this, then there's no fucking excuse for it to not be so with any two opposing individuals.
@@LabTech41 I mean, even here, Bill O'Reiley isn't exactly nice here. Jon Stewart does gentle ribbing, but O'Reily is such a patronizing asshole the entire time.
never saw this interview, but what a respectful exchange of thougts and opinions. Jon is always on top of the argument and O´reilly knows that, to a point that he eased the fire on O´reillys heart.Amazing to watch.
+TheEpicGypsy Is stating that a man is a misogynist after he has been proven to be one mean that I am a social justice warrior? what else should I say about him?
That producer or whatever was almost certainly fired 20 minutes after that laugh. Also I love that multiple times in the interview he throws that word back at him
John Stewart is so amazing the way he set up the Bono facts, and the way he drew an analogy to Bono. It is the exact same thing. Same thing with Bob Dylan.
THIS WAS A BRILLIANT ATTACK AGAINST RACIST MENTALLITIES BY HOLDING UP THE MIRROR WHILE THE WHOLE COUNTRY GETS TO SEE OREILLY'S HIDEOUS REFLECTION. JOHN DIDNT HAVE TO SHOOT THE MAD MAN. HE JUST HANDED HIM THE GUN AND LET O'REILLY DO WHAT HE DOES, RUN HIS MOUTH, TAP DANCE FOR HIS BASE, THEN SHOOT HIMSELF IN THE FOOT. ONCE AGAIN, BRILLIANT.
@@Joseph-vr3mg in my country is just a different kind of the same insanity, sometimes I watch out of couriosity foreign tv news - its either ideological indoctrination like in highly developed western countries /usa, holland, sweden etc/ or party affiliation for the most of the rest
19:43 Its so wild hearing all the times Donald's name is mentioned as a joke option for president before he actually became president. People were so innocent back then.
It's amazing seeing Jon Stewart get so aggressive in a debate, but still be friendly and kind, and make such a strong effort to try and understand the opinion O'reilly is expressing. Whereas O'Reilly would just be openly nasty and bully-ish and expect the people around him to just accept it.
Right? They've almost got a Muhammad Ali/Howard Cosell-type dynamic: constant arguing and giving each other a hard time, yet have great chemistry and maybe even secretly respect one another.
Watching this 13 years later from the time it aired, I miss seeing two people who have different views get into a heated argument and still come out being friendly and respectful to each other.
I’m not a big Jon Stewart fan, but he is funny as hell. I do have mad respect for him after watching his presentation to congress regarding first responders. One of the best things I have ever seen.
Hell yeah. Kind of makes you think about how few conservatives actually do the important work they portend to care about. Stewart was busting his ass for years
Ya, that's true but this time he lost. Lol, stewart got owned on this one. In my opnion. Why do you think stewart was actually right on any of this? I don't even like bill o reilly, but he's right sometimes , and on this. He's a blowhard and an a hole and a jerk often times. But on this topic he's cleary correct. You seem to make the argument that orielly wasn't consistent in this, but it's Stewart And you that don't understand what being consistent actually is. In my opinon it's people like stewart , who don't look at the whole picture , and that's the problem.
Ten years later, I come to these old videos of Jon Stewart when I need doses of intelligence and sanity. "Be consistent in your outrage" has become my political stance on anything and a sober reminder to check myself always for biases and hypocrisy. Jon, you're a legend.
For real! The only thing that can keep you grounded amid the frequent flip flopping from both sides of the political aisle is to be consistent in your convictions
I soooooo ok miss him. His show. His observations. His not 100 % bullshit news and stupidity, and lacking intelligence delivery. Fox should take notes.
This interview is just Golden! Funny, insightful and respectful. These 2 guys do have mutual respect. Them getting together hones their craft and adds to constructive dislogue and raising the conversation..
@@robnor1029 actually, snarkrat, it makes sense because it implies that Bill is supportive of a commie. Driving in direct contrast to his usual script.
I grew up while these two guys were big on TV and seeing it now, It feels so different. I can see now how these guys were basically friendly and both just different kinds of comedians who enjoyed having this kind of snappy back and forth. I remember feeling like there was more tension lol. Anyway, this is a classic interview, thanks for the upload.
@Phillip S It may have been at one time but lately they've pushed away their diversity and actual news in favor of more opinion based shows like hannity
Chris Wallace? Judge Napolitano? Juan Williams? Even Shepard Smith was left-leaning, and injected it into his news runtime. Want me to continue? Name a conservative on CNN.
Anyone else watching this in 2020 n getting a surreal feeling when he says "we can't be run off course by any one individual" at @19:30 n then proceeds to talk about Trump?
Bill has such poor foresight. He’s essentially arguing for a society where artists restrict any expression against the government for fear of state-imposed consequences. The ability to speak out against the authorities and still break bread with them is an incredible achievement for a very troubled, draconian nation.
I watch these clips because it reminds me of talking to my dad. These two are diametrically opposed, but they have chemistry, and I genuinely think they both get a kick out of these conversations. A part of them could be best friends. It seems less contentious and more like two very different people just ribbing.
When Trump is out of office, I pray some normalcy can come back ... but I know that the Republican Party will still be the Party of Trump, as that's their ONLY identity. To tell you the truth: Trump isn't the WORST President this country has ever had. He's up there, but we had John Tyler, James Buchanan, Andrew Jackson: open pro-slavers. Richard Nixon was responsible for the Vietnam War, and George W Bush for the Iraq War, both of which are responsible for thousands of deaths (and war crimes) on their hands. Trump, at the very least, hasn't started any wars or been openly pro-slavery ... that's as close to a compliment I'll give to him. Trump, at best, is incompetent and is unqualified for the job. At worst, he's a megalomaniac who fashions himself a monarch (not a Traditional Fascist, a King, there's a difference). If he weren't intolerant, he could do WAY more damage ... the real problem comes from the Party that supports him. The Republicans have had SEVERAL chances to kick this man out of office and put Pence or anyone else in charge (maybe with horrible political views, but at least Pence is competent enough not to blast Twitter-storm hissy-fits online). I don't know the point I'm trying to make ... things could be better, things could be worse?
How so? The protests are creating change and reshaping the damage that he has caused. America, as a whole, is strong. The protesters are in the process of defeating fascism and Donald Trump.
I think Trump will have a lasting legacy, but if he loses, the cult of strength the right has built will at least fall a little. I'm hopeful that we will survive.
@@names_are_useless Trump has interment camps on the border, tried to start a war, is responsible for the deaths of over 100,000 Americans, and is a fascist. He's pretty fucking bad.
Jon Stewart is class, able to have an adult conversation with opposition views. He is also able to be calm and collect. I watch this and see there is much more room for me to grow as a person.
Watching this, and their debate show in 2012...oddly makes me feel more respect for both of them.. Like they are on totally opposite sides politically, but like each other enough to where their opinions don't define their relationship. I could totally see them going for a beer after this. Which is really what we need right now.
Yeah o’reilly is just being hostile and bombastic from the start and Stewart gets visibly frustrated at times . . But he just keeps killing bill with kindness. It’s genius. He completely deflate’s bill’s hostility and manages to get him to listen to his answers. Most of this conversation is actually pretty civil for two people who are so ideologically disparate. And I think a lot of that is down to Jon Stewart’s patience and decency.
I've realized humor is a powerful tool to get your points across. You tend to be more cooperative with someone you like, even if you're initially unwilling to agree with what they're saying.
I really didn’t appreciate it at the time, but these guys get along really well. Honestly, it’s so refreshing looking back at this in 2023 and seeing strong disagreements but clear respect and some affection. The Weather Girls jokes in particular made me just want to see more of them!
This is sort of a captured moment from the end of an era - We went from Chomsky v Buckley, to Stewart v O’Reilly, to Tucker Carlson shouting over someone he found on Twitter. Now even O’Reilly looks sane compared to what’s left at that network. We can’t have across the aisle dialogue like this anymore, there’s noone left on the right capable of even O’Reilly’s level of “(un)fair and (im)balanced”
@@dylanmiller1475 POLARIZING: While these two were debating, the Tea Party movement in 2009 - sponsored by the billionaire brothers Koch via Americans for Prosperity were polarizing AF. You know, the first thing the right and 'blue colors' was scammed and tricked by (before Trump and the new QAnon cult). You can thank the GOP with Newt Gingrich as chief backed up by conservative talk radio and FOX News in the 1990s and especially Newt Gingrich's 'list of negative words' from 1996 for the spiral of hate, populism, DIVISION and negative polarisation in politics and american society! Because they all knew then, that the natural evolution of society (in the US and the West) has been 'kind of pink' since the early 90s. And the GOP would have difficulty to ever win back the power again with 'old' conservative ideology. So they needed to change the narrative and political rhetoric - you could no longer just disagree and still work together on the things and politics you agreed on, no you were now enemies. It was 'them against us'. Media changed at the same time (24/7 cable news) and made politics like sport and entertainment. They knew times were changing and more and more peoples' thoughts and way of living (thankfully) was getting more and more 'liberal' - you know, equal rights for minorities, women, gays, workers and americans was/is (thankfully) becoming less religious.

After the interview they were immediately flown to a CIA black site in Bulgaria and they were water boarded with ice cubes and had to watch reruns of The Nanny.
I love it how they can be so different politically, yet still get along. Honestly, I think Jon is more genuine about his beliefs, whereas O'Reilly it's more of an act for his show.
“Analogous is too big of a word, I don’t know what that mean?” Literally, on his very next breath. “You’re pettifogging this!” What on earth was he even getting at
"I feel like this country stronger than any individual you can throw at it... And I don't think the damage they can do is so drastic and so great that we would ever be run off course by one individual." Jon Stewart (goddam, if that were only still true)
"Sarah Palin. Governor of Alaska. Left office with high approval rating." - "I'm sure she did, yeah. ...And then they got to know her." Going to need some burn cream there.^^
That was awesome. Stewart had so many great lines and accurate answers. Bill is always so grumpy, outraged, and spewing his hot air, but even he lightened up a bit by the end.
@@squeet6831 I remember The Weather Girls when they were called "Two Tons of Fun" and appeared on a show called "Real People." As for Trump, I think that Stewart was talking about a Trump presidency like the comedic gold mine that was George W's two terms. He obviously had no way of knowing how toxic and catastrophic that prospect would become. Who DID at that time?
@Xakkil In all fairness, Ann Coulter said that Trump could win on "Real Time with Bill Maher" when there were a number of Republican Primary candidates going up against him and she was laughed at by his audience, prompting her after he won later to give a later audience and the cameras a smug smile after "she was proven right," and Michael Moore expressed concern that Trump would win. So that's two people who called it. But I agree that there could be some major changes made after "Drumpf" is shown The Door and he will wonder why he had carte blanche before but not anymore and he might try to buy an island and declare himself King in Exile or buy a network that will broadcast "All Trump Propaganda All The Time." We'll have to wait and see....
The guy in the background that I assume is an employee of Bill's who keeps laughing whenever Stewart destroys O'Reillys argument is my personal hero. I'm sure he was fired shortly after this concluded...
@@aliceshaw8265 lmao you're a moron. This is an easy statement to debunk and it can be done using common sense, which its pretty obvious you're lacking in. How bout you show me one single shred of proof to back up your claim. Fox news notoriously hires ridiculous liberals so that they can bash them and make thier claims seem more credible. Take Hannity and Combs for example, Hannity the square jawed relatively good looking conservative christian man and they put him next to the nerdy ugly scientist looking Combs. Lol you think that was just done on accident? Hell no, they do it constantly, they bring on liberals that are borderline idiots who cant debate thier way out of a paper bag. They stack the deck in thier favor and they do it daily! You're a delusional little man if you think there are more liberals at fox. Even Fox news wouldnt admit that claim lmao
I’ve spent about 100,000 hours studying English humor and Western culture, and about 100,000 hours studying Chinese culture. My native language is Chinese. I teach Chinese in humorous way and with cute pictures. Hope somebody recommend my videos to those who want to learn Chinese
Then and now, John Stewart can shoot holes through the bow of any hypocritical, racist or nonsensical ship of hatred he wishes to. Funny how wit and humor during debate can cut so much deeper than merely using logic can. He's one of a kind. It's unfortunate there aren't more people like him to bring sense to the all to common lines of bs we are fed so often.
Look where these two are now. Bill is disgraced and broadcasting an irrelevant webcam show from his home office. Jon Stewart is basically retired and can show up on any show he wants at any time and they would absolutely love to have him.
I felt Stewart left too soon. Especially in the Trump era. I noticed in an interview a year or so ago he looked like he lost alot of weight, I was thinkin he was ill.
Culture Bearer Why do you alt-right guys always like your own comments? And, Fox *ism't* fake news? lol. Why age is even an issue here is pointless considering they're both over 40, plenty of experience to draw from. You're just pissed your guy fucked up on his own network against some "libtard" - am I right?
Private Joker Did you watch the vid mate? O'Reilly got "pwned" multiple times for his hypocrisy. The fact that it was funny just added to it. And I never in any way said or even hinted that Stewart "defeated" Bill because he was funny. O'Reilly is an ignorant aul cunt, anyone can destroy him. Fox News is a joke, honestly. If you watch that shit and take it seriously... it's legit worrying. And It's been atleast a week since I watched this but if I recall correctly Stewart noted that Fox viewers are consistently misinformed. Shouldn't that tell you something? They percieve other mainstream outlets to be left wing - not telling you they mean 'establishment left' which is basically diet right wing - so they have 0 shame in being a propaganda arm of the Republicans, just as other networks basically shill for the Democrats. Look at that last Presidential election, perfect example. Trump, the republican candidate was running on a slightly leftwing agenda to end the wars and create relations with Russia rather than conflict. All good things. What "left" wing policies did Clinton want? More war, corruption and wall street cunts to remain doin what they're doing. Thats not what the left wing want. And it turns out Trump was talking pure shite and did a U-turn on almost everything. So realisticly you had 2 right wing candidates in that last election, representing the Democrats and Republicans. Thats leaving out the fact that Clinton cheated Bernie, and then Trump managed to cheat Clinton via the electoral college. It was fucked up and totally undemocratic - if I was a yank i'd be rioting til I got another election. Thats not what anyone, left or right, is asking for though... which is mental because it's a solid argument for another election. Btw what exactly do you oppose about the left or Stewarts politics? We can have a civil discussion here if you like. I'm pretty much a democratic socialist and an Irish nationalist and republican, which are all very left leaning things. My guess is you're on the right, but i've had civil discussions with neo-nazis so don't hold back.
@Drew Mitchem Not all cops are the same. They are referring to the racist cops and their have always been plenty of them over the last 70years. To them they are hired to do their jobs and leave. There were many slave haters who had plenty of slaves.
There was even more: "I think that her inability to get past slights, it makes it very difficult to like ... I would imagine her at night just with the hand going 'Did you see that thing that ...'".
“Pettifogging is kind of a larger word than analogous..” Jon took that right out of my mouth. I’ve never heard of pettifogging before but I use analogous everyday in my college essays.
I’ll be honest I never heard either of these words before but based on their facial reactions they both knew what was happening, and I’m all the way in 😂 not all Intelligence is verbal 🤷🏼♂️
@@ryangreco8266 A few seconds after he suggested he didn't know analogous, Bill O'Reilly used the word "analogy" which is the noun version of "analogous".
@@patrickcorliss8878 it’s because people like O’Reilly are actually well-spoken and intelligent, but if they use that persona on Fox News they will alienate themselves from their core audience, so they tone down their vocabulary to match that of their audience. I was actually surprised he busted out pettifog… Or he was trying to make Jon out as an educated liberal (or both).
optikalillusion777 dafuq? Ok... it’s simple. It’s edited. How many times do I have to explain this? I was an intern at SDSU and saw this live. Whether they have audiences today, I don’t know. It was me and 6 other interns visiting the studio and seeing this live. What’s so hard to understand about this? The laughs are edited into it.
